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.

About Foot to the fourth (ft⁴)

An imperial second-moment-of-area unit (1 ft⁴ ≈ 0.00863 m⁴) used for large cross-sections: reinforced-concrete beams in US civil engineering, bridge girders, and large composite sections. Less common than in⁴ but shows up when the section size warrants it.
