SHS 80x80x8 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 80x80 (México) · Caño estructural 80x80 (Argentina)

The SHS 80x80x8 steel profile weighs 16.8 kg/m (11.28 lb/ft), has a depth of 80 mm (3.15 in), flange width 80 mm (3.15 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,139.186 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 177.195 cm⁴, Iy = 177.195 cm⁴.
