SHS 220x220x7.1 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 220x220 (México) · Caño estructural 220x220 (Argentina)

The SHS 220x220x7.1 steel profile weighs 46.4 kg/m (31.21 lb/ft), has a depth of 220 mm (8.66 in), flange width 220 mm (8.66 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,916.543 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 4,419.511 cm⁴, Iy = 4,419.511 cm⁴.
