HSS 406x305x9.5

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 406x305x9.5 steel profile weighs 91.0 kg/m (61.15 lb/ft), has a depth of 406.4 mm (16.00 in), flange width 304.8 mm (12.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 12,207.4 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 29,824.72 cm⁴, Iy = 19,146.2 cm⁴.
