Circular Hollow Section · AS/NZS 1163 · Australia / New Zealand
114.3 x 3.2 CHS is a circular hollow section 114.3 mm in outside diameter with a 3.2 mm wall, weighing 8.8 kg/m. The dimensions below are the published AS/NZS 1163 values; the drawing is generated from them.
Circular Hollow Sections are cold-formed tubes to AS/NZS 1163 — efficient in compression and torsion, with identical stiffness about every axis.

Derived section properties
Integrated analytically from the exact circular tube. For 114.3 x 3.2 CHS the computed area agrees with the published value to better than 0.01% and Ix to better than 0.01%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
| Property | Value |
