LEQ 100x100x10 section
The rolled section LEQ 100x100x10, an angle section, also illustrates the capabillities of SectionExpert 2010.
Some of the properties can be found in texts that contain standard sections. However, notice that,
results obtained from SectionExpert 2010 are more accurate than those found in tables of standard sections,
since the simplifying assumptions used in arriving at the approximate formulas are not made in the finite element analysis.

In the following table only a small portion of the calculated properties are presented.
