About Centimeter to the fourth (cm⁴)

A metric second-moment-of-area unit equal to 10⁻⁸ m⁴. cm⁴ is the dominant practical unit in European structural-steel catalogs and section tables (DIN, Eurocode, BS). An I-beam's "Ix" and "Iy" properties are listed in cm⁴ on section property tables throughout Europe and the UK.

About Inch to the fourth (in⁴)

An imperial second-moment-of-area unit dominant in US structural engineering. AISC Steel Construction Manual lists Ix, Iy, J, and Cw for every rolled shape in in⁴. A W14×90 wide-flange beam has Ix ≈ 999 in⁴. Essential for US structural design using LRFD or ASD methods.
