SHS 115x115x5.6 Açotubo · Weight & Dimensions

Açotubo, cold-formed sections · 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 115x115 (México) · Caño estructural 115x115 (Argentina)

The SHS 115x115x5.6 steel profile weighs 18.6 kg/m (12.50 lb/ft), has a depth of 115 mm (4.53 in), flange width 115 mm (4.53 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,369.801 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 464.391 cm⁴, Iy = 464.391 cm⁴.
