Universal ColumnGrade: S355

305 x 305 x 137 kg Universal Column S355

Rolled as a universal column measuring 320.5 × 308.7 mm, the 305 x 305 x 137 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 137 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 7.3 linear metres. Members of this weight sit in the main structural spine of a building, so we typically supply them with a full fabrication and marking package. 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 multi-storey load paths, building stanchions, storey-height posts, baseplate-mounted columns and goalpost frame legs.

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