RHS 200x150x8
EN — 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 RHS 200x150x8 steel profile weighs 40.3 kg/m (27.08 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,344 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,043.72 cm⁴, Iy = 1,935.64 cm⁴.
