SHS 90x90x3.6 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 90x90 (México) · Caño estructural 90x90 (Argentina)

The SHS 90x90x3.6 steel profile weighs 9.5 kg/m (6.38 lb/ft), has a depth of 90 mm (3.54 in), flange width 90 mm (3.54 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,210.785 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 148.509 cm⁴, Iy = 148.509 cm⁴.
