21.3 x 2.0 CHS

Circular Hollow Section · AS/NZS 1163 · Australia / New Zealand

21.3 x 2.0 CHS is a circular hollow section 21.3 mm in outside diameter with a 2.0 mm wall, weighing 1.0 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 21.3 x 2.0 CHS the computed area agrees with the published value to 0.03% and Ix to better than 0.01%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
