Rectangle Hollow structural sections (HSS) Table Chart per ASTM 1085 Table Chart (2024)

Rectangle Structural Tube Per. ASTM 1085 Table Chart


Engineering Materials Menu

Rectangle Structural Tube Per. ASTM 1085, table chart HSS Hollow Structural Section Square Structural Tube. This specification covers cold-formed welded carbon steel hollow structural sections (HSS) for welded or bolted construction.

Where:

h = Height
w = Width
t = Wall thickness
I = Area moment of inertia
S = Elastic section modulus
Z = Plastic section modulus
J = Torsional stiffness of cross section
C = Tortional shear constant or cross section
A = Section area
r = Radius of Gyration

Notes:

  • Cold formed and welded
  • Yield Stress Round 50 ksi min - 70 ksi max
  • Tensile stress 65 ksi min
  • Wall thickness -5%
  • Mass tolerance -3.5%
  • CVN 25 ft-lbs at 40 degrees F
  • Heat treating optional
