S24×100 standard beam
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.
S24×100 measures 24 in. deep with a 7 1/4 in. flange, on a 3/4 in. web and 7/8 in. flanges.
At 100 lb per foot it is one of the 5 S24 sizes, which run from 80 to 121 lb/ft.
For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 199 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 2380 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 239 in³.
