SHS 220x220x5 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 220x220 cal 6 (México) · Caño estructural 220x220 (Argentina)

The SHS 220x220x5 steel profile weighs 33.3 kg/m (22.34 lb/ft), has a depth of 220 mm (8.66 in), flange width 220 mm (8.66 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,235.619 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,238.022 cm⁴, Iy = 3,238.022 cm⁴.
