Steel beam properties

[Anonymous]

Hi Guys, I have a question about the W - Nominal Weight in Properties Edit.

Is the default kg/m?

For instance, my current parameter is for IPE200AA is 0.176520 as a default, and the list I have for the steel weight properties is,18 kg/m

Designation	h	b	tw	tf	r1	m
	mm	mm	mm	mm	mm	kg/m
IPE-AA 200	196.4	100	4.5	6.7	12	18

I am confused.
