Canadian Structural Steel Sections — Free CAD Blocks, Dimensions & Properties

Welcome to ca.cad-steel.com, the Canadian member of the CAD-Steel family of sites. Here you'll find free AutoCAD blocks, dimension tables, and property tables for structural steel sections manufactured to Canadian standards — built directly from the CISC Structural Section Tables (CISC 12), the reference used by structural engineers and detailers across Canada.

Whether you're sizing a beam, detailing a connection, or just need a clean DWG to drop into a drawing, you'll find every common Canadian shape family here: Wide-Flange (W), M, S and HP shapes, Standard and Miscellaneous Channels (C, MC), Equal and Unequal Angles (L), Structural Tees (WT), and the full range of Hollow Structural Sections in both ASTM A500 (HA) and CSA G40 (HS) grades — rectangular, square and round.

Every dimension and property table on this site is sortable by any column, so you can find the shape you need by depth, mass, or any other property in seconds. Click through to any designation and you'll find a scaled image of the section along with a ready-to-use .dwg file and a full data .zip — completely free to download.

This kind of consolidated, CISC-compliant Canadian section library — CAD blocks and full dimensional/property data in one place, sorted, searchable, and free — isn't something you'll find gathered together anywhere else. Most resources give you a PDF of tables and leave the CAD work to you; we've done both, for all 1,286 designations across every family.
