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. However, no
capacity tables are given for S235 either, because sections available may not be
manufactured to BS EN 10219-2:1997.
S355 capacity tables are given for cold-formed hollow sections in part D. However, to
maintain consistent page numbering between S275 capacity tables and S355 capacity
tables, pages C - 18 to C - 28 are not given here.

For bearing or buckling the web capacity = C1 + bl C2
Where bl is the stiff bearing length.
The beam component for end bearing assumes a sealing plate (thickness at least equal to the wall of the section) is welded to the
end of the section by a continuous fillet weld.

. Section is not given in BS 4-1 : 1993.

F = Factored axial load.
$ For these values of FIP, 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.
- Not applicable for semi-compactand slender sections.
The values in this table are conservative for tension as the more onerous compression section classification limits have been used,

The section can become slender under axial compression only. Under combined axial compression and bending the section becomes
slender when the semi-compact FIP, limit is exceeded.
Under combined axial compression and bending the capacities are only valid up to the given FIP, limit. For higher values of FIP, 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 = ~ . v . L ~ / r ~ h ' ' ~
Mbsis obtained using an equivalent slenderness = 0.5 Ur,. Effective length LE= L.

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 10219-21 1997.
tables, pages C - 174 to C - 226 are missed out here.

Values in bold are less than the single shear capacity of the bolt.
Values in italic are greater than the double shear capacity of the bolt.
Bearing values assume standard clearance holes.
If oversize or short slotted holes are used, bearing values should be multiplied by 0.7.
If long slotted or kidney shaped holes are used, bearing values should be multiplied by 0.5.
If appropriate, shear capacity must be reduced for large packings, large grip lengths and long joints.
