Hollow Section Weight Calculator
Creating a comprehensive table for the weight of hollow sections can be quite extensive, as it depends on various factors including the type, shape, size, and material of the hollow section. Below is a simplified version that includes common types of hollow sections, their dimensions, materials, and estimated weights.
Hollow Section Weight Table

Notes:
- Material Variance: Weights vary based on specific material properties; densities for materials like stainless steel or aluminum differ from mild steel.
- Dimensional Variance: Dimensions can significantly change the weight; always refer to manufacturer specifications for exact figures.
- Standards: Ensure compliance with relevant standards for construction and engineering applications.
This table serves as a general guide. For precise applications, consult a structural engineer or a supplier for exact weights and specifications tailored to your project’s needs.
