HP16×101 H-pile
Detailing dimensions and section properties from the AISC Shapes Database, 16th Edition. Values are shown to the nearest 1/16 in. as they appear on a shop drawing.
HP16×101 measures 15 1/2 in. deep with a 15 3/4 in. flange, on a 5/8 in. web and 5/8 in. flanges.
At 101 lb per foot it is one of the 6 HP16 sizes, which run from 88 to 183 lb/ft.
For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 168 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 1300 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 187 in³.
