254 x 254 x 132 kg Universal Column S355
Rolled as a universal column measuring 276.4 × 261 mm, the 254 x 254 x 132 kg Universal Column S355 is the section you reach for when the member stands up and carries load down. The near-square geometry gives a much better minor-axis radius of gyration than a beam of the same weight, which is what keeps slenderness — and therefore buckling — under control over storey heights.

Cutting Plans & Visualisation
Reference Images
At 132 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 7.6 linear metres. At the top of the weight range, transport and lifting normally dictate the delivery plan as much as the programme does. 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.
If the column is exposed in the finished building, specify the finish early: blast-cleaning and priming are done before fabrication marks are covered.

answered.
Common questions about the 254 x 254 x 132 kg Universal Column S355 — weight, grade, cut-to-length and worldwide delivery.
- It weighs 132 kg per linear metre, so a tonne is approximately 7.6 metres. A 6 m length comes to about 792 kg. Use the figure for lifting plant selection and for pricing, since structural steel is sold by weight.
