This page provides a concise reference for the Celsius 355 CHS 60.3×5.6 section. Use the supplied dimensions and section data when checking drawings, comparing circular hollow sections, or preparing a preliminary steel takeoff.
The source data identifies the section by its outside diameter and wall thickness, then lists its sectional area and unit weight. The accompanying DWG resource supports CAD and detailing workflows.
Celsius 355 CHS 60.3×5.6
Celsius 355 Circular Hollow Sections
refer to : EN 10210-2:2006-04
the European standard that specifies tolerances, dimensions, and sectional properties for hot-finished structural hollow sections of non-alloy and fine grain steels. It supports EN 10210-1, which covers technical delivery conditions.
Diameter : 60.3 mm
Thickness : 5.6 mm
Sectional Area : 9.62 cm2
Unit Weight : 7.6 kg/m
How to read this CHS reference
CHS means circular hollow section. Its geometry is described by the circular diameter and the tube wall thickness. These dimensions define the section profile shown in the referenced CAD resource and help distinguish this member from other circular hollow sections in a steel shape library.
The listed sectional area is a cross-sectional property, while the unit weight describes the mass assigned to a length of the section. Keep these values separate when reviewing material quantities, connection details, or section-property information. For structural use, the relevant design checks and connection requirements must be verified for the actual application by a qualified engineer.
Standard reference and CAD workflow
The source refers to EN 10210-2:2006-04 for dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties for hot-finished structural hollow sections. It also identifies the relationship to EN 10210-1, which addresses technical delivery conditions. Consult the project specification and applicable design basis when using this reference.
For drafting, download the linked DWG file and compare its geometry with the source dimensions before incorporating it into a model or fabrication drawing. Related SteelSTD pages for steel section dimensions, section properties, and connection detailing can provide useful context without replacing project-specific verification.
Frequently asked questions
What does CHS mean?
CHS means circular hollow section, a hollow steel profile with a circular cross-section.
Which dimensions identify this section?
The source identifies the section using its diameter and wall thickness. These are listed directly in the technical reference above.
What information is provided for quantity checking?
The reference provides the sectional area and unit weight. Use the unit weight with the required member length when preparing a preliminary material estimate, then verify the result against the project documents.
Which standard is referenced?
The page refers to EN 10210-2:2006-04 for dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties, with EN 10210-1 identified for technical delivery conditions.
Is a DWG file available?
Yes. The linked download provides a DWG resource for the Celsius 355 CHS 60.3×5.6 reference. Review the file before using it in production drawings.
