SHS 140x140x8 Iberian tables · Weight & Dimensions

Iberian tables, 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 140x140 (México) · Caño estructural 140x140 (Argentina)

The SHS 140x140x8 steel profile weighs 31.9 kg/m (21.41 lb/ft), has a depth of 140 mm (5.51 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,059.186 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,153.924 cm⁴, Iy = 1,153.924 cm⁴.
