Common questions about Wide Parallel Flange Beams (WPB)

How many wide parallel flange beams (wpb) are there in IS 808 : 2021?

123, from WPB 100 × 100 at 12.24 kg per metre to WPB 800 × 300 at 317.36 kg per metre. They are printed in IS 808 Table 4 - Wide Parallel Flange Beams.

Which is the lightest wide parallel flange beams (wpb) in this table?

WPB 100 × 100, at 12.24 kg per metre with a sectional area of 15.5 cm². The heaviest is WPB 800 × 300 at 317.36 kg per metre.

How do I work out the weight of a length from this chart?

Multiply the mass per metre by the length and the number of pieces. WPB 100 × 100 at 12.24 kg/m, in 6 m lengths, ten of them, is 12.24 × 6 × 10 = 734 kg. The standard publishes the mass, so there is nothing to compute from the area.

Why are 4 rows in this table marked?

Because the standard contradicts itself on those rows: it prints both the sectional area and the mass per metre, so each is a check on the other, and on those rows the two disagree by more than rounding explains. Both figures are shown exactly as printed and neither is corrected — but you are told, so it can be checked before it reaches a tender.

Where these figures come from. IS 808 Table 4 - Wide Parallel Flange Beams Section properties are facts published in the standards, and they are reproduced here as printed. Where a standard contradicts itself, both of its figures are shown and neither is corrected.

What is ours. The selection and arrangement of these tables, the checks run against them, and the findings those checks produced — which rows disagree with themselves, which figures were superseded by amendment, and which could not be read — are QuickBOQ’s work, and so is this wording. Quote the numbers freely; they belong to everyone. Copying the compilation and the commentary is a different thing, and we would rather you linked to it.
