FOREWORD

Seventh Edition The first edition of this Design Guide was published in 1985; it was revised in 1987 (2nd Edition), in 1992 (3rd Edition), in 1996 (4th Edition), in 1997 (5th edition) and in 2001 (6th edition). It is a basic working tool for users of BS 5950-1 Structural use of steelwork in building – Code of practice for design – Rolled and welded sections, which was first published in 1985, revised in 1990 and in 2000.

This edition is a reprint of the 6th edition, in which the section range has been updated. The tables are dual titled with the BS designation as well as the Advance (open sections), Celsius® (hot finished hollow sections) or Hybox® (cold formed hollow sections) branding.

The following structural sections are covered in this publication:

• Universal beams, Universal columns, joists, bearing piles, parallel flange channels, and structural tees cut from Universal beams and Universal columns to BS 4-1

• ASB (asymmetric beams) Slimdek® beam produced by Corus (see Corus brochure, Advance™ sections, 09/2006))

• Equal and Unequal angles to BS EN 10056-1

• Hot-finished structural hollow sections to BS EN 10210-2

• Cold-formed structural hollow sections to BS EN 10219-2

Section ranges listed are intended to be in line with sections that are readily available at the time of printing. Some sections, which are readily available but not listed in the above standards, are also included; these sections are designated by “+” in the tables.

The editorial work for the 7th Edition was carried out by Miss E Nunez Moreno, based on the 6th edition produced by Mr A Way and Mr A S Malik, with technical assistance from Mr C M King of the SCI and Mr J C Taylor, formerly of the SCI. The 6th edition was coordinated by Mr D G Brown, of the SCI, and Mr P J Williams, formerly of the BCSA.

This publication has been jointly funded by SCI and BCSA. Acknowledgement is also given to Corus for its support for the work leading to the preparation of the initial formulae on which the capacity tables are based.

The major differences between the 7th Edition (2007) and the 6th Edition (2001) are: • Branding for Advance, Celsius® and Hybox® sections has now been included.

• Capacity tables for Hot Finished and Cold Formed Hollow Sections are only given for S 355 steel grade and not for S 275.

• Hot Finished Elliptical Hollow Sections have now been included in the section dimensions and property tables.

• Castellated universal beams and universal columns have been omitted.

• Product standards have been updated as shown in the table below.

1.2 Dimensional units The dimensions of sections are given in millimetres (mm).

1.3 Property units Generally, the centimetre (cm) is used for the calculated properties but for surface areas and for the warping constant (H), the metre (m) and the decimetre (dm) respectively are used.

Note: 1 dm = 0.1 m = 100 mm

1 dm6 = 1 x 10-–6 m6 = 1 x 1012 mm6

1.4 Mass and force units The units used are the kilogram (kg), the Newton (N) and the metre per second (m/s2) so that 1 N = 1 kg × 1 m/s2. For convenience, a standard value of the acceleration due to gravity has been generally accepted as 9.80665 m/s2. Thus, the force exerted by 1 kg under the action of gravity is 9.80665 N and the force exerted by 1 tonne (1000 kg) is 9.80665 kilonewtons (kN).

2 DIMENSIONS OF SECTIONS

2.1 Masses The masses per metre have been calculated assuming that the density of steel is 7850 kg/m3.

In all cases, including compound sections, the tabulated masses are for the steel section alone and no allowance has been made for connecting material or fittings.

2.2 Ratios for local buckling The ratios of the flange outstand to thickness (b/T) and the web depth to thickness (d/t) are given for I, H and channel sections. The ratios of the outside diameter to thickness (D/t) are given for circular hollow sections. The ratios d/t and b/t are also given for square and rectangular hollow sections. All the ratios for local buckling have been calculated using the dimensional notation given in Figure 5 of BS 5950-1: 2000 and are for use when element and section class are being checked to the limits given in Tables 11 and 12 of BS 5950-1: 2000.

2.3 Dimensions for detailing The dimensions C, N and n have the meanings given in the figures at the heads of the tables and have been calculated according to the formulae below. The formulae for N and C make allowance for rolling tolerances, whereas the formulae for n make no such allowance.

2.3.1 Universal beams, universal columns and bearing piles

N = (B − t) /2 + 10 mm (rounded to the nearest 2 mm above)

n = (D − d) /2 (rounded to the nearest 2 mm above)

C = t /2 + 2 mm (rounded to the nearest mm)

n = (D − d) /2 (rounded to the nearest 2 mm above)

C = t /2 + 2 mm (rounded to the nearest mm)

Note: Flanges of BS 4-1 joists have an 8o taper.

2.3.3 Parallel flange channels N = (B – t) + 6 mm (rounded up to the nearest 2 mm above)

n = (D − d) /2 (taken to the next higher multiple of 2 mm)

C = t + 2 mm (rounded up to the nearest mm)

3 SECTION PROPERTIES

3.1 General All section properties have been accurately calculated and rounded to three significant figures. They have been calculated from the metric dimensions given in the appropriate standards (see Section 1.2). For angles, BS EN 10056-1 assumes that the toe radius equals half the root radius.

3.2 Sections other than hollow sections 3.2.1 Second moment of area (I) The second moment of area of the section, often referred to as moment of inertia, has been calculated taking into account all tapers, radii and fillets of the sections.

3.2.2 Radius of gyration (r) The radius of gyration is a parameter used in buckling calculation and is derived as follows:

r = [I / A]1/2

where:

A is the cross-sectional area.

3.2.3 Elastic modulus (Z) The elastic modulus is used to calculate the elastic moment capacity based on the design strength of the section or the stress at the extreme fibre of the section from a known moment. It is derived as follows:

Z = I / y

where:

y is the distance to the extreme fibre of the section from the elastic neutral axis.

The elastic moduli of the tee are calculated at the outer face of the flange and toe of the tee formed at the net section.

P:\Pub\Pub800\Sign_off\P202 7th Edition\Final\P202V07.doc 31/05/07 A - 4

For parallel flange channels, the elastic modulus about the minor (y-y) axis is given at the toe of the section, i.e.:

y = B – cy

where:

B is the width of the section

cy is the distance from the back of the web to the centroidal axis.

For angles, the elastic moduli about both axes are given at the toes of the section, i.e:

yx = A – cx

yy = B – cy

where:

A is the leg length perpendicular to x-x axis

B is the leg length perpendicular to y-y axis

cx is the distance from the back of the angle to the centre of gravity, referred to as the x-x axis

cy is the distance from the back of the angle to the centre of gravity, referred to as the y-y axis.

3.2.4 Buckling parameter (u) and torsional index (x) The buckling parameter and torsional index used in buckling calculations are derived as follows:

(a) For bi-symmetric flanged sections and flanged sections symmetrical about the minor axis only:

u = [(4 Sx2 γ / (A2 h2)]1/4

x = 0.566 h [A/J]1/2

(b) For flanged sections symmetric about the major axis only:

u = [(Iy Sx2 γ / (A2 H)]1/4

x = 1.132 [(A H) / (Iy J)]1/2

where:

Sx is the plastic modulus about the major axis

γ = [1 – Iy/Ix]

Ix is the second moment of area about the major axis

Iy is the second moment of area about the minor axis

A is the cross-sectional area

h is the distance between shear centres of flanges (for T sections, h is the distance between the shear centre of the flange and the toe of the web)

H is the warping constant

J is the torsion constant.

3.2.6 Plastic modulus (S) The full plastic moduli about both principal axes are tabulated for all sections except angle sections. For angle sections, BS 5950-1: 2000 requires design using the elastic modulus.

The reduced plastic moduli under axial load are tabulated for both principal axes for all sections except asymmetric beams and angle sections. For angle sections, BS 5950-1: 2000 requires design using the elastic modulus.

When a section is loaded to full plasticity by a combination of bending and axial compression about the major axis, the plastic neutral axis shifts and may be located either in the web or the tension flange (or in the taper part of the flange for a joist) depending on the relative values of bending and axial compression. Formulae giving the reduced plastic modulus under combined loading have to be used, which use a parameter n as follows:

n = ypA

F (This is shown in the member capacity tables as F/Pz)

where:

F is the factored axial load

A is the cross-sectional area

py is the design strength of the steel.

For each section, there is a “change” value of n. Formulae for reduced plastic modulus and the “change” value are given below.

(a) Universal beams, universal columns and bearing piles

If the value of n calculated is less than the change value, the plastic neutral axis is in the web and the formula for lower values of “n” must be used. If n is greater than the change value, the plastic neutral axis lies in the tension flange and the formula for higher values of n must be used. The same principles apply when the sections are loaded axially and bent about the minor axis, lower and higher values of n indicating that the plastic neutral axis lies inside or outside the web respectively.

If the value of n calculated lies between the lower change value (n1) and the higher change value (n2), the plastic neutral axis lies in the tapered part of the flange and then a linear interpolation between the two formulae is used to calculate the reduced plastic modulus.

Minor axis bending:

In calculating the reduced plastic modulus of a channel for axial force combined with bending about the minor axis, the axial force is considered as acting at the centroidal axis of the cross-section whereas it is considered to be resisted at the plastic neutral axis. The value of the

Page 23: Steelwork Design Guide to BS 5950-1: 2000 · PDF fileSteelwork Design Guide to BS 5950-1: 2000 Volume 1 Section Properties Member Capacities 7th Edition The Steel Construction Institute

P:\Pub\Pub800\Sign_off\P202 7th Edition\Final\P202V07.doc 31/05/07 A - 9

reduced plastic modulus takes account of the resulting moment due to eccentricity relative to the net centroidal axis.

The reduced plastic modulus of a parallel flange channels bending about the minor axis depends on whether the stresses induced by the axial force and applied moment are the same or of opposite kind towards the back of the channel. Where the stresses are of the same kind, an initial increase in axial force may cause a small initial rise of the “reduced” plastic modulus, due to the eccentricity of the axial force

For each section there is again a change value of n. For minor axis bending the position of the plastic neutral axis when there is no axial load may be either in the web or the flanges. When the value of n is less than the change value, the formula for lower values of n must be used. If n is greater than the change value, the formula for higher values of n must be used.

The formulae concerned are complex and are therefore not quoted here.

3.2.7 Equivalent slenderness coefficient ( aφ ) and monosymmetry index ( aψ )

The equivalent slenderness coefficient ( aφ ) is tabulated for both equal and unequal angles. Two values of the equivalent slenderness coefficient are given for each unequal angle. The larger value is based on the major axis elastic modulus (Zu) to the toe of the short leg and the lower value is based on the major axis elastic modulus to the toe of the long leg.

3.3 Hollow sections Section properties are given for both hot-finished and cold-formed hollow sections. The ranges of hot-finished and cold-formed sections covered are different. The section ranges listed are in line with sections that are readily available from the major section manufacturers. For the same overall dimensions and wall thickness, the section properties for hot-finished and cold-formed sections are different because the corner radii are different.

3.3.1 Common properties For comment on second moment of area, radius of gyration and elastic modulus, see Section 3.2.1, 3.2.2 and 3.2.3.

For hot-finished square and rectangular hollow sections, the sectional properties have been calculated, using corner radii of 1.5t externally and 1.0t internally, as specified by BS EN 10210-2[9].

For cold-formed square and rectangular hollow sections, the sectional properties have been calculated, using the external corner radii of 2t if t ≤ 6 mm, 2.5t if 6 mm < t ≤ 10 mm and 3t if t > 10 mm as specified by BS EN 10219-2[10]. The internal corner radii used is 1.0t if t ≤ 6 mm, 1.5t if 6 mm < t ≤ 10 mm and 2t if t > 10 mm, as specified by BS EN 10219-2[10].

4 EFFECTIVE SECTION PROPERTIES

4.1 General In BS 5950-1: 2000 effective section properties are required for design of members with class 3 semi-compact and class 4 slender cross-sections. Effective section properties are given for sections subject to compression, bending and also combined axial compression and bending. Effective section properties depend on the grade of steel used; effective properties for grades S275 and S355 are given next to each other or on facing pages.

4.2 Effective section properties of members subject to compression (except angles)

The compression resistance of class 4 slender sections is calculated using the effective cross-sectional area Aeff instead of the gross area A, according to BS 5950-1[1], Clause 4.7.4(b). The section classification depends on the width/thickness ratios of the webs and the flanges. The tables list sections that can be class 4 slender and the character W or F indicates whether the section is slender due to the web or the flange. The effective area of the section is given for all slender sections and is calculated as follows:

For UB, UC and Joists with the web controlling the classification Aeff = A – t(d – 40tε) For circular hollow sections Aeff = A [ (80/(D/t)) (275/py) ]

0.5

For hot-finished square and rectangular hollow sections with web controlling Aeff = A – 2t( (D-3t) – 40tε) For hot-finished square and rectangular hollow sections with web and flange controlling Aeff = A – 2t( (D-3t) + (B-3t) – 80tε) For cold-formed square and rectangular hollow sections with web controlling Aeff = A – 2t( (D-5t) – 35tε)

For cold-formed square and rectangular hollow sections with web and flange controlling Aeff = A – 2t( (D-5t) + (B-5t) – 70tε)

where:

ε = (275/py)0.5

A is the gross cross-sectional area

d is the depth between fillets

P:\Pub\Pub800\Sign_off\P202 7th Edition\Final\P202V07.doc 31/05/07 A - 13

py is the design strength

D, B and t are as defined in Section 3.3.2.

The ratio of effective area to gross area (Aef/A) is also given in the table to provide a guide as to how much of the section is effective.

4.3 Effective section properties of members subject to compression (angles)

The cross-section classification is given along with the design strength and the reduced design strength. The reduced design strength is used for angles instead of the effective area because otherwise the effect of the additional moments induced by the shift of the centroid of the effective section would need to be considered (BS 5950-1, Clause 3.6.3).

Only members which are class 4 slender in S275 or S355 are listed. The reduced design strength for class 4 slender sections is calculated as follows:

pyr = Minimum { py (15ε /(d/t))2 , py (15ε /(b/t))2 , py(24ε /((b+d)/t))2 }

where:

ε = (275/py)0.5

d is the length of the long leg

b is the length of the short leg

py is the design strength

t is the leg thickness.

4.4 Effective section properties of members subject to pure bending The section classification depends on the width/thickness ratios of the webs and the flanges. The tables give sections that are class 3 semi-compact or class 4 slender in S275 or S355 and the character W or F indicates whether the web or the flange controls the section classification.

For class 3 semi-compact sections the effective plastic modulus Seff is given, which is calculated as in BS 5950-1, Clauses 3.5.6.2, 3.5.6.3 and 3.5.6.4.

For class 4 slender sections the effective elastic modulus Zeff and the effective second moment of area Ieff are given and are calculated as follows:

4.5 Effective section properties of members subject to axial compression and bending

The cross-section classification is dependent on the level of axial load. Therefore, the classification and effective plastic modulus is given for a range of axial loads, expressed as a proportion of the squash load, Pz. The tables give sections which can be class 3 semi-compact or class 4 slender in S275 or S355 and the character W or F indicates whether the section classification is controlled by the web or the flange.

The effective plastic modulus is calculated in accordance with BS 5950-1, Clauses 3.5.6.2, 3.5.6.3 and 3.5.6.4. It should be noted that the limits used from Tables 11 and 12 are the “Web – Generally” limits.

The section classification of a section is partly dependent on the level of axial load applied. None of the universal columns, joists or parallel flange channels can be slender under axial compression only, but some universal beams and hollow sections can be slender. Sections that can be slender under axial compression are marked thus *.

Code Ref.

If a cross-section can be slender under axial load, the tabulated compression resistance is only based on the slender cross-section equation (given above) if the value from this equation is greater than the axial load required to make the cross-section slender. Otherwise, the compression resistance of a potentially slender section is given as the smaller of the non-slender compression resistance and the axial load required to make the section slender. Tabulated values based on the equation for slender cross-sections are printed in italic type.

An example is given below:

686 × 254 × 170 UB S275

For this section, d/t = 42.4 > 40ε

Hence, the section can become slender if axial load is sufficiently high.

The axial load at which the section becomes slender is 5410 kN.

This value is calculated by setting d/t for the section equal to the class 3 limit from BS 5950-1[1], Table 11 and then solving for the value of axial load (Fc).

For LE = 4 m, Pcx = p c s A e f f = 5660 kN (slender cross-section)

Hence table shows 5660 kN in italic type because, pcs Aeff > value at which cross-section becomes slender, 5410 kN.

For LE = 12 m, Pcx = pc A = 5400 kN (non-slender cross-section)

Hence the table shows 5400 kN in normal type because, pcA < value at which cross-section becomes slender, 5410 kN.

(b) Compression resistances Pcx and Pcy

The values of compression resistance Pcx and Pcy for buckling about the two principal axes are based on:

• The effective lengths (LE) given at the head of the table. 4.7.3

• The slenderness (8), calculated as follows:

For UB, UC, joist and hollow sections,

8 = LE/rx for x axis buckling

8 = LE/ry for y axis buckling

(b) The section classification given in the tables applies to members subject to bending only about the appropriate axes. Sections can be slender for pure bending about the x-x or y-y axis in both S275 and S355 because the d/t ratio of the flange is greater than 40ε for hot-finished sections and 35ε for cold-formed sections. It should be noted that a section may be slender when bending about the y-y axis and not slender when bending about the x-x axis.

Table 11

(c) The limiting length, Lc, is the length above which lateral torsional buckling should be checked.

4.3.6.1 Table 15

(d) The second moment of area (I) is repeated in the tables as it is required for deflection checks.

The bearing capacity Pw, of the unstiffened web is given by:

be is the distance to the nearer end of the member from the end of the stiff bearing

where:

D = Total depth of section.

Note: Since none of the rolled sections have d/t > 70ε, there is no need to check for shear buckling of the web.

9.2 Parallel flange channels: bearing, buckling and shear capacities for unstiffened webs

The nominal cross-section dimensions of parallel flange channels give a square heel, but the tolerances include a small heel radius (see Corus brochure Structural sections[11]), based on BS EN 10279:2000[7]. The heel radius can be between zero and 0.3 times the flange thickness.

In most cases the loads and reactions are applied directly to the web (by angle cleats, end plates or fin plates), so this is usually of no significance. However, if a force from a load or reaction is applied to the channel through the flange, the presence of a heel radius may produce eccentricity of this force relative to the web, so reduction factors, Kb for bearing and Kw for buckling to allow for this have been included in the tables.

The use of these reduction factors will provide acceptable design, but if necessary the eccentricity can be eliminated. A simple method is to use a continuously welded flange plate local to the stiff bearing, extending at least to the back of the channel. Depending on details, other methods may be appropriate.

The factor 4 allows for two webs and dispersion of load in two directions and applies to a member that is continuous over bearing or an end bearing member with a continuously welded sealing plate.

For non-welded flange plates, the equivalent eccentricity of loading from the centreline of the web is given by:

10 AXIAL & BENDING TABLES

10.1 Axial load and bending: UB sections, UC sections, joists, and parallel flange channels

Generally, members subject to axial compression and bending should be checked for cross-section capacity (Clause 4.8.3.2) and member buckling (Clause 4.8.3.3).

Columns in simple construction should be checked in accordance with Clause 4.7.7.

All the relevant parameters required to evaluate the interaction equations given in the above clauses have been presented in tabular form, as follows:

(a) Cross-section capacity check 4.8.3.2

The tables are applicable to members subject to combined tension and bending and also to members subject to combined compression and bending. However, the values in the tables are conservative for tension, as the more onerous compression section classification limits have been used.

Values are given in the tables for:

(i) Pz = Ag py (py is the design strength)

(ii) F/Pz limits

The compact and semi-compact limits are the maximum values of F/Pz up to which the section is either compact or semi-compact, respectively. The compact limit is given in bold type.

(iii) Mcx and Mcy

These are the moment capacities (with low shear load) about the major and minor

axes respectively. They have been calculated as in Section 8.1 using Sx, Sxeff, and Sy, Syeff, as appropriate.

Note: Sxeff and Syeff can change with F/PZ values.

When F/Pz exceeds the semi-compact limit, the section is slender, due to the web and the moment capacities tabulated are based on a reduced design strength and the gross section properties, instead of pyZeff

The symbol $ indicates that the section would be overloaded due to axial load alone i.e. the section is slender and F > Aeff py .

(iv) Mrx and Mry

These have been determined using the reduced plastic moduli given in the section property tables for the values of F/Pz at the head of the table. Values of Mrx and Mry are not valid for semi-compact and slender sections hence, no values are shown when F/Pz exceeds the limit for a compact section (shown as “ – ” in the tables).

Generally, members subject to axial compression and bending should be checked for cross-section capacity and member buckling.

Columns in simple construction should be checked in accordance with Clause 4.7.7.

All the relevant parameters required to evaluate the interaction equations given in the above clauses have been presented in tabular form, as follows:

(a) Cross-section capacity check 4.8.3.2

The symbol * denotes that the section is slender when fully stressed under axial compression only.

Values are given in the tables for:

(ii) F/Pz limits

The compact and semi-compact limits are the maximum values of F/Pz up to which the section is either compact or semi-compact, respectively. The compact limit is given in bold type. There are no F/Pz values for circular hollow sections.

(iii) Mc , Mcx and Mcy

Mc for circular and square hollow sections, Mcx and Mcy for rectangular hollow sections. These are the moment capacities (with low shear load) about the major and minor axes respectively. They have been calculated as in Section 8.2 using Sx, Sxeff, Zx and Zxeff, Sy, Syeff, Zy and Zyeff, as appropriate.

When F/Pz exceeds the semi-compact limit, and therefore the section is slender, if it is the web of the section that is slender the moment capacities tabulated are based on a reduced design strength and the gross section properties.

The symbol $ indicates that the section would be overloaded due to axial load alone i.e. the section is slender and F > Aeff py .

(b) Member buckling check 4.8.3.3

The simplified method (Clause 4.8.3.3.1) assumes that out-of-plane, lateral torsional buckling controls. However, in certain instances, it is likely that in-plane buckling, e.g. chord of truss with purlins not at node point, will be more critical. Thus, it is recommended that the more exact method should be used.

11.3 Floor plates

It is usual to consider floor plates as supported on all four edges, even though two edges may only be supported by stiffeners or joint covers. If the plates are securely bolted or welded to the supporting system, they may be considered as encastre, which increases the load carrying capacity slightly and reduces the deflection considerably.

The thickness given is exclusive of any raised pattern.

The breadth is the smaller dimension and the length the greater, irrespective of the position of the main support members.

The maximum uniformly distributed load on the plate (w) is given by Pounder’s formula and the maximum skin stress is limited to the design strength py.

For calculating the maximum deflection (dmax) at serviceability, the uniformly distributed imposed load (wimp) on plate, is derived as follows:

12 SECTION DESIGNATIONS AND STEEL GRADES

12.1 Open Sections The dimension and member capacity tables given in this publication are dual titled. The tables give the name of the section type, as given in the relevant British Standard (e.g. Universal beams and Universal columns, for I sections to BS4-1 and Equal leg angles and Unequal leg angles for sections to BS EN 10056-1) followed by the Corus designation in their Advance range of sections. An example of this dual titling is given below:

UNIVERSAL BEAMS Advance UKB

The Advance range of sections encompasses all the UB, UC, Tee and PFC sections in BS 4-1 and most of the angle sections in BS EN 10056-1. The dimensions and properties of the Advance sections are the same as those of the corresponding British Standard sections and the same standards for dimensional tolerance apply. The Advance range also includes additional beam and column sections not in BS 4-1 and angle sections not in BS EN 10056-1; these are designated by ‘+’ in the tables.

The only difference between Advance sections and BS sections is that the Advance sections are always CE Marked. The BS sections do not require CE Marking in the UK.

Tables are also included for Asymmetric Slimflor Beams. These sections are manufactured by Corus; they are part of the Advance range and they are CE Marked. Tables are included for joist sections to BS 4-1.

The table below shows the relationship between the BS 4-1 section designation and the section designation for the Advance sections.

Where capacity tables cover Advance sections, the steel grade is also dual titled. The strength grade designation given in BS EN 10025-2: 2004 is given first, followed by the grade designation for the Advance sections. An example of this dual titling of the steel grade is given below:

S 275 / Advance275

The Advance designation is a simplified designation that encompasses the specification to BS EN 10025 and the additional quality control procedures to ensure CE Marking. It also enables a shorter form of designating the grade when ordering. The table below shows the designations in the two systems.

12.2 Hollow Sections The dimension and member capacity tables given in this publication are dual titled. The tables give the name of the section type, as given in the relevant British Standard (e.g. Hot finished circular hollow section, for a circular section to BS EN 10210-2 and Cold formed square hollow section, for a square section to BS EN 10219-2), followed by the Corus designation from the Celsius® range of hot finished sections or from the Hybox® range of high strength cold formed sections. An example of this dual titling, for hot finished circular hollow sections, is as follows:

HOT FINISHED CIRCULAR HOLLOW SECTIONS

Celsius® CHS

The tables include circular, square, rectangular and elliptical hollow sections available in the Celsius® and Hybox® ranges and the dimensional and sectional properties are either as tabulated in the Standards or are calculated in accordance with the Standards. The only difference between a section to BS EN 10210-2 or to BS EN 10210-2 and its equivalent Celsius® or Hybox® sections is that the Corus section will always be CE Marked.

The table below shows the relationship between section designations in BS EN 10210: 2006 and BS EN 10219: 2006, and those for Celsius® and Hybox® sections produced by Corus.

Comparison of designation systems for hollow sections

BS EN 10210: 2006 Corus designation

Hot finished circular hollow section Celsius® CHS

Hot finished square hollow section Celsius® SHS

Hot finished rectangular hollow section Celsius® RHS

Hot finished elliptical hollow section Celsius® OHS

BS EN 10219: 2006

Cold formed circular hollow section Hybox® CHS

Cold formed square hollow section Hybox® SHS

Cold formed rectangular hollow section Hybox® RHS

In the capacity tables the steel grade is also dual titled. The strength grade designation given in BS EN 10210-1 and BS EN 10219-1 is given first, followed by the grade designation for the Celsius® or Hybox® sections. An example of this dual titling of the steel grade is given below:

S 355 / Celsius® 355

In all cases, the mechanical properties of Celsius® or Hybox® hollow sections meet all the requirements given in BS EN 10210-1:2006 or BS EN 10219-1:2006, as appropriate. The table below shows the relationship between the steel grades given in the standards and those for Celsius® and Hybox® sections from Corus.

HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

EFFECTIVE SECTION PROPERTIES

There are no effective property tables given for hot finished hollow sections in S275, because normally hot finished hollow sections are available in S355 only.

There are no effective property tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No effective property tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

EFFECTIVE SECTION PROPERTIES

There are no effective property tables given for hot finished hollow sections in S275, because normally hot finished hollow sections are available in S355 only.

There are no effective property tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No effective property tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

EFFECTIVE SECTION PROPERTIES

There are no effective property tables given for hot finished hollow sections in S275, because normally hot finished hollow sections are available in S355 only.

There are no effective property tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No effective property tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

HOT-FINISHED HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

COLD-FORMED HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

S355 capacity tables are given for hot finished hollow sections in part D (pages D - 23 to D - 34). However, to maintain consistent page numbering between S275 capacity tables and S355 capacity tables, pages C - 23 to C - 34 are missed out here.

COMPRESSION

There are no capacity tables given for hot finished hollow sections in S275, because normally hot finished hollow sections are available in S355 only.

There are no capacity tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No capacity tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

S355 capacity tables are given for hot finished hollow sections in part D (pages D - 10 to D - 22). However, to maintain consistent page numbering between S275 capacity tables and S355 capacity tables, pages C - 10 to C - 22 are missed out here.

HOT-FINISHED HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

COLD-FORMED HOLLOW SECTIONS - S275

There are no capacity tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No capacity tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

S355 capacity tables are given for hot finished hollow sections in part D (pages D - 78 to D - 84). However, to maintain consistent page numbering between S275 capacity tables and S355 capacity tables, pages C - 78 to C - 84 are missed out here.

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.+ These sections are in addition to the range of BS 4 sections* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

Advance and UKC are trademarks of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Columns (UC) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

0.5

Mbs is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 L/ry. Effective length LE = L.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.1

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Columns (UC) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

There are no capacity tables given for cold-formed hollow sections in S275, because normally cold-formed hollow sections are available in S235 and S355 only. No capacity tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be manufactured to BS EN 10219-2: 2006.

Advance and UKPFC are trademarks of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Parallel Flange Channels and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.Le/ry.βw

0.5

Mbs is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 L/ry. Effective length Le = L.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.1

Advance and UKB are trademarks of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.+ These sections are in addition to the range of BS 4 sections* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.+ These sections are in addition to the range of BS 4 sections* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Beams (UB) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.* The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes slender when the semi-compact F/Pz limit is exceeded.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

Mbs is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 L/ry. Effective length LE = L.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.1

A fuller description of the relationship between Universal Columns (UC) and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.+ These sections are in addition to the range of BS 4 sectionsUnder combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.LE/ry.βw

0.5

Mbs is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 L/ry. Effective length LE = L.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.1

Celsius® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Hot Finished Square Hollow Sections (HFSHS) and the Celsius® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb and Mbs should be taken as equal to Mc.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Celsius® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Hot Finished Rectangular Hollow Sections (HFRHS) and the Celsius® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/P z limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2p yZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to M b.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Celsius® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Hot Finished Rectangular Hollow Sections (HFRHS) and the Celsius® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/P z limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2p yZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to M b.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

A fuller description of the relationship between Hot Finished Rectangular Hollow Sections (HFRHS) and the Celsius® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.§ The section can be slender but no allowance has been made in calculating P cx and Pcy.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/P z limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2p yZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to M b.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Celsius® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Hot Finished Rectangular Hollow Sections (HFRHS) and the Celsius® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.^ SAW process (single longitudinal seam weld, slightly proud)§ The section can be slender but no allowance has been made in calculating P cx and Pcy.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/P z limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2p yZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to M b.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Hybox® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Cold Formed Square Hollow Sections (CFSHS) and the Hybox® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.* The section is slender, Pc = pcsAeff

Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit.For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb and Mbs should be taken as equal to Mc.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Hybox® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Cold Formed Rectangular Hollow Sections (CFRHS) and the Hybox® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2pyZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to Mb.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Hybox® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Cold Formed Rectangular Hollow Sections (CFRHS) and the Hybox® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.§ The section can be slender but no allowance has been made in calculating Pcx and Pcy.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2pyZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to Mb.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Hybox® is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Cold Formed Rectangular Hollow Sections (CFRHS) and the Hybox® range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.§ The section can be slender but no allowance has been made in calculating Pcx and Pcy.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values of F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb values in italic type are governed by 1.2pyZ and a higher value may be used in some circumstances.Mbs should be taken as equal to Mb.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.2

Advance and UKPFC are trademarks of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Parallel Flange Channel and the Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given F/Pz limit. For higher values F/Pz the section would be overloaded due to F alone even when M is zero, because F would exceed the local buckling resistance of the section.Mb is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = u.v.Le/ry.βw

Mbs is obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 L/ry. Effective length Le = L.FOR EXPLANATION OF TABLES SEE NOTE 10.1
