Notes

For unbraced sections, allowable moment is based on AISI S100 Specification Section F2 & F3 with weak axis and torsional unbraced length assumed to be the listed span (completely unbraced).
Web crippling calculation based on bearing length = 1 inch.
Web crippling and shear capacity have not been reduced for punchouts. If web punchouts occur near support members must be checked for reduced shear and web crippling in accordance with the AISI S100 Specification.
Values are for simple span conditions.
Lengths labeled with an "e" required web stiffeners at supports.
