Obsolete W-section

Obsolete W-section

Obsolete W-section

(OP)
Hey all. I am looking for the properties of a W8 x 17 section.  I'm assuming this is an obsolete size as I can not find it in the AISC Manual. Thanks!

RE: Obsolete W-section

From AISC search utility, ASD7 database:

A=5.01
d=8
tw=0.245
bf=5.25
tf=0.308
Ix=56.6
Iy=7.44
Zx=15.9
Zy=4.36

RE: Obsolete W-section

Obsolete like me.  That was one of my favorite sections.  To memory, replaced with slightly different W8 x 18.
