Square Hollow Sections – FAQs

What does SHS stand for in steel ?

SHS stands for Square Hollow Section, a type of structural steel with a square cross-section. This design provides uniform strength and clean lines, making SHS sections ideal for construction projects requiring both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

Commonly used in frameworks, columns, and architectural designs, SHS steel offers excellent load-bearing capacity and resistance to twisting.

SHS columns are measured by their external width, height, wall thickness, and length. The square shape ensures the width and height are identical, and these dimensions, alongside the wall thickness, are typically recorded in millimetres.

For further guidance on dimensions and weights, refer to the CHS size and weight chart available on this page. This additional resource can help ensure your project specifications are met with precision and ease.

RHS and SHS steel primarily differ in their cross-sectional shapes. RHS has a rectangular profile, offering a greater moment of inertia, making it ideal for use in beams and horizontal structures.

SHS, with its square profile, provides uniform strength in all directions, making it suitable for columns, frameworks, and architectural features.

Both types are versatile and reliable, but the choice between RHS and SHS depends on the specific structural and design needs of your project.
