CHS 100x6 Condesa · Weight & Dimensions
Condesa, cold-formed sections · Circular Hollow Section
Circular Hollow Sections (CHS) are round tubular profiles with the most efficient cross-section for compression. Used for columns, trusses, and architectural structures.
Also known as: Caño estructural redondo (Argentina)
The CHS 100x6 steel profile weighs 13.9 kg/m (9.33 lb/ft). Cross-sectional area: 1,771.858 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 196.499 cm⁴, Iy = 196.499 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 6 mm ≈ 4 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
