Bent Plate Properties
(OP)
Can anyone tell me how AISC calculates their properties for biaxial single angle flexure? I have a scenario where we need to use a long bent plate to carry brick. I need a 9" outstanding leg and angles only go to 8", so I need to calculate Swa, Swb, Swc, Sza, Szb and Szc.
Also, AISC referred me to their design example E.14 from their V14.1 design examples set. Their example is a single angle column with eccentric point load. In their example the eccentricities from z and w axes are intuitive since they are out of plane, but how do I adjust this for a vertical load on the plate that will be in plane with these axes?

I was able to figure out the I and r values, but it's the section moduli that have been stumping me. I suppose I could make the upturned leg 9" as well and look at it as an equal leg angle since AISC actually gives equations for equal leg angles. Is this the route you would go?

The table provides zo as the coordinate along the z axis of the shear center with respect to the centroid, which makes sense when looking at Fig. C-F10.4.
What are the values z and w though? These appear almost as variable, but how do I decide what to plug in?
