HSS 152x152x8.0

AISC — Square Hollow Section

Square Hollow Sections (SHS) are tubular profiles with equal sides, ideal for columns and compression members due to their uniform buckling resistance in all directions.

The HSS 152x152x8.0 steel profile weighs 32.5 kg/m (21.84 lb/ft), has a depth of 152.4 mm (6.00 in), flange width 152.4 mm (6.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,292 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,507.91 cm⁴, Iy = 1,507.91 cm⁴.
