L7×4×3/4 angle

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.

L7×4×3/4 has a 7 in. long leg and a 4 in. short leg, 3/4 in. thick.

At 26.2 lb per foot it is the heaviest of the 5 L7×4 sizes, which run from 13.6 to 26.2 lb/ft.

For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 8.39 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 37.8 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 14.8 in³.
