SHS 175x175x8 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 175x175 (México) · Caño estructural 175x175 (Argentina)

The SHS 175x175x8 steel profile weighs 40.7 kg/m (27.32 lb/ft), has a depth of 175 mm (6.89 in), flange width 175 mm (6.89 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,179.186 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,367.889 cm⁴, Iy = 2,367.889 cm⁴.
