SHS 150x10
EN — 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.
Also known as: PTR 150x150 (México) · Caño estructural 150x150 (Argentina)
The SHS 150x10 steel profile weighs 40.9 kg/m (27.48 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,600 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,838.67 cm⁴, Iy = 1,838.67 cm⁴.
