AISC — Rectangular Hollow Section
Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) are tubular profiles with excellent torsional resistance and aesthetic appeal. Used for columns, trusses, and exposed structural elements.
The HSS 356x254x8.0 steel profile weighs 66.5 kg/m (44.69 lb/ft), has a depth of 355.6 mm (14.00 in), flange width 254 mm (10.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 8,803 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 16,277.95 cm⁴, Iy = 9,691.47 cm⁴.
