Universal ColumnGrade: S355

203 x 203 x 60 kg Universal Column S355

Rolled as a universal column measuring 209.6 × 205.2 mm, the 203 x 203 x 60 kg Universal Column S355 is the section you reach for when the member stands up and carries load down. Column capacity falls away with effective length, so the same section can be perfectly adequate at 2.4 m and badly overloaded at 5 m. The design check is length-driven, not just load-driven.

At 60 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 16.7 linear metres. Sections this heavy are usually part of a primary load path, so mill certification and dimensional tolerance matter as much as the section size itself. Held in S355 to BS EN 10025-2 and cut to length before it leaves the yard. Mill certificates accompany every load, and any fabrication is executed under our BS EN 1090 EXC 3 factory production control.

Typically specified for goalpost frame legs, heavy bracing nodes, mezzanine and platform legs, shallow flat-laid beams where headroom is tight and multi-storey load paths.

Holding-down bolt positions are best confirmed against the setting-out drawing before the baseplate is welded on.
