Profile overview for CHS 762/50
The CHS 762/50 is a structural steel cross-section utilized in commercial construction, industrial framing, and mechanical engineering. Manufactured as a hot finished section, it complies with EN 10210-2 dimensional standards, ensuring predictability in detailing and fabrication.Access to its exact geometric and statical properties is essential for 3D modeling and structural verification.
Geometry: This circular hollow section features a nominal outer diameter of 762 mm and a uniform wall thickness of 50 mm. With a cross-sectional area of 111840.6985 mm² and a linear mass of 877.949483 kg/m, the CHS 762/50 offers a distinct stiffness-to-weight ratio for both column (axial) and beam applications.
Section properties: For design of bending, the major and minor axis properties dictate the member's structural capacity. The strong-axis moment of inertia (Iy) of 7122071599 mm⁴ governs major deflection and serviceability limits. To calculate the ultimate bending resistance, engineers may utilize the strong-axis plastic section modulus of 25388866.67 mm³. For lateral stability and column buckling verifications, the weak-axis moment of inertia (Iz) provides 7122071599 mm⁴ of lateral stiffness.
Advanced analysis: For complex load cases, the CHS 762/50 provides a y-axis shear area (at strong bending axis) of 71200 mm² for web shear verification and a torsion constant of 14244143198 mm⁴ for calculating rotational twist under eccentric loading.
