203 x 203 x 71 kg Universal Column S355
203 x 203 x 71 kg Universal Column S355 is a hot-rolled universal column measuring 215.9 × 206.2 mm, proportioned for axial load rather than span. 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 71 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 14.1 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. Supplied in grade S355 to BS EN 10025-2, cut to your lengths and delivered worldwide. Heat numbers are traceable back to the rolling mill, with EN 10204 3.1 certificates issued against each delivery.
Typically specified for mezzanine and platform legs, shallow flat-laid beams where headroom is tight, multi-storey load paths, building stanchions and storey-height posts.
Holding-down bolt positions are best confirmed against the setting-out drawing before the baseplate is welded on.
