It is hard to get reliable information about geometry of standardized section. Standards are not public and not all steel manufacturers information is documented.
ArcelorMittal was willing to cooperate, fill in some blancs. Point of departure: http://sections.arcelormittal.com/library/product-catalogues.html and more specific from this location: http://sections.arcelormittal.com/fileadmin/redaction/4-Library/1-Sales_programme_Brochures/Sales_programme/Sections_MB-ArcelorMittal_FR_EN_DE-V2016-3.pdf .
Sections are divided in European, British, American, Russian, and Japanese.
Sections per region:
- European: IPE, IPN, HE, HLZ/HL, HD, HP, UPE, UPN, U
- British: UB, J, UC, UBP, PFC, CH
- American: W, S, HP, C, MC, L
- Russian: HG (B/Б, K, SZ/Ш) UE (Y)
- Japanese: H
We use a standard for geometry: Commons Shapes Designation Standard
Based on that...
- European:
- IW: IPE, HE, HLZ/HL, HD, HP
- IS1W: IPN
- UW: UPE
- US1W: UPN, U
- British:
- IW: UB, UC, UBP
- IS1W: J
- UW: PFC
- US1W: CH
- American: W, S, HP, C, MC, L
- Russian: HG (B/Б, K, SZ/Ш) UE (Y)
