SHS 70x70x8 Tata Steel Celsius · Weight & Dimensions

Tata Steel Celsius · 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 70x70 (México) · Caño estructural 70x70 (Argentina)

The SHS 70x70x8 steel profile weighs 15.0 kg/m (10.08 lb/ft), has a depth of 70 mm (2.76 in), flange width 70 mm (2.76 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,874.124 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 117.187 cm⁴, Iy = 117.187 cm⁴.
