Metric Dimensions and Sections Properties

HSS Manufacturing Methods


The transformation of steel strip into hollow structural sections (HSS) is the result of operations including forming, welding and sizing. Currently
three methods are being used in North America for the manufacture of HSS. These methods, including two ERW methods and an SAW method, are
described below. Both ERW methods meet ASTM A 500 and CSA G-40.21 requirements for the manufacture of HSS, and the ERW sizes included in
this publication may be produced to either standard. The SAW method is not included as a manufacturing process in the ASTM or CSA specification.
SAW sizes listed in this publication can be specified to meet desired physical and dimensional criteria of ASTM A500 and CSA G-40.21

Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) Process


In the tube mill, flat steel strip (1) is formed continuously around its
longitudinal axis to produce a round tube. This is done by moving the
strip through a progressive set of rolls (2-6). The strip edges (7) are
heated by either high frequency induction or contact welding and then
forged together by weld rolls to create a continuous longitudinal weld
without the addition of filler metal. The weld seam (8) is then cooled
and processed through a set of sizing/shaping rolls which cold-form it
into a round (9), square (10) or rectangular (11) section.

Form-Square Weld-Square (ERW) Process


In the weld mill, driven forming dies progressively shape the flat strip
(1) by forming the top two corners (2) of the square or rectangular tube
in the initial forming station. Subsequent stations form the bottom two
corners (3) of the shape. No cold working of the sides of the shape is
performed, and the shapes seam is welded by high-frequency contacts
when the tube is near its final shape and size. The welded tube (4) is
cooled and then driven through a series of sizing stations which qualifies
the tubes final dimensions.

Submerged Arc Weld (SAW) Process


Two identical pieces of flat strip (1) are placed in a press brake and
formed into two identical halves (2) of a finished tube size. A backup bar
is tack welded to each leg of one of the half-sections (3). The two halfsections are fitted together toe-to-toe (4) and welded by the submerged
arc process to complete the square or rectangular section (5).

FOREWORD
The International System of units (System International or SI) has been adopted as the preferred system of
measurement in the United States. As a result, architects, engineers and fabricators are increasingly being required
to specify SI (metric) information for products used in construction applications.
This publication presents SI dimensions and section properties for U.S. customary sizes of rectangular, square
and round Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) manufactured by the electric-resistance welding (ERW) process and the
submerged arc welding (SAW) process. Refer to HSS Manufacturing Methods described on the inside front cover of
this publication. The SAW method is not included as a manufacturing process in the ASTM or CSA specifications. This
method is typically used to manufacture HSS sizes that are larger than the maximum 64-inch periphery defined in
ASTM A500. SAW sizes listed in this publication can be specified to meet desired physical and dimensional criteria
of ASTM A500 or CSA G-40.2l.
Wall thickness, width and depth of rectangular and square HSS, and outside diameter of round HSS have converted
to SI units and rounded to the nearest one-tenth of a millimeter. The conversion factor is 1 inch equals 25.4 millimeters
exactly. All section property data have been calculated using these converted values. See, also, the Steel Tube Institutes
publication Recommendations for Soft Conversion of HSS Sizes from U.S.. Customary Units to Metric (SI) Units.
Section property data are based upon the design wall thickness. The design wall thickness, t, for ERW HSS is equal to
0.93 times the nominal wall thickness. For SAW HSS, the design wall thickness, t, is equal to the nominal wall thickness.
The design wall thickness for each HSS size is included in the tabulated data.
Section property data based upon the design wall thickness, t, results in variations in the published area data that
do not exceed 3.50% of the area data based upon the minimum permissible wall thickness stipulated in ASTM A500. This
is consistent with similar section property information published for hot rolled structural shapes and the manufacturing
tolerances associated with those products.
The section property data for rectangular and square ERW HSS are based upon outside corner radii equal to 2.0 times
the design wall thickness. The section property data for rectangular and square SAW HSS are based upon outside corner
radii equal to 3.0 times the design wall thickness for 3/8 and 1/2 inch nominal wall thicknesses and 3.6 times the
design wall thickness for 5/8 inch nominal wall thickness. SAW HSS sizes are indicated in the tables with an asterisk, *,
after the nominal wall thickness.
General availability information for each size of HSS is contained in the Steel Tube Institutes companion publication
Principal Producers and Capabilities.
The information presented in this publication has been prepared in accordance with recognized engineering principles and is for general information only.While it is
believed to be accurate, this information should not be used or relied upon for any specific application without competent professional examination and verification
