SHS 150x150x7.1 V&M do Brasil · Weight & Dimensions

V&M do Brasil, hot-rolled 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 150x150 (México) · Caño estructural 150x150 (Argentina)

The SHS 150x150x7.1 steel profile weighs 30.8 kg/m (20.72 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 3,928.543 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,314.245 cm⁴, Iy = 1,314.245 cm⁴.
