Up to W30. +/- 1/16"

I know they make special squares that have a little step so you're referencing the flat part of either flange (and not the curvature where the flanges meet the web). How would I do this if I didn't have access to that specific tool? I simple tape measure doesn't work because if you're...

I'm working with structural steel.

I'm looking for something more than a 15 minute Youtube video. Something more comprehensive.
