Common questions about Circular Hollow Sections

How many circular hollow sections are there in IS 1161 : 2014?

80, from 21.3 mm OD × 2.6 mm at 1.2 kg per metre to 355.6 mm OD × 12 mm at 101.68 kg per metre. They are printed in IS 1161:2014 Table 1 - Steel Tubes for Structural Purposes.

Which is the lightest circular hollow section in this table?

21.3 mm OD × 2.6 mm, at 1.2 kg per metre with a sectional area of 1.53 cm². The heaviest is 355.6 mm OD × 12 mm at 101.68 kg per metre.

How do I work out the weight of a length from this chart?

Multiply the mass per metre by the length and the number of pieces. 21.3 mm OD × 2.6 mm at 1.2 kg/m, in 6 m lengths, ten of them, is 1.2 × 6 × 10 = 72 kg. The standard publishes the mass, so there is nothing to compute from the area.

Where these figures come from. IS 1161:2014 Table 1 - Steel Tubes for Structural Purposes Section properties are facts published in the standards, and they are reproduced here as printed. Where a standard contradicts itself, both of its figures are shown and neither is corrected.

What is ours. The selection and arrangement of these tables, the checks run against them, and the findings those checks produced — which rows disagree with themselves, which figures were superseded by amendment, and which could not be read — are QuickBOQ’s work, and so is this wording. Quote the numbers freely; they belong to everyone. Copying the compilation and the commentary is a different thing, and we would rather you linked to it.
