Work out the utilisation of SHS 180/4 for your design forces

Enter the design loads and the section is checked for bending, shear and compression with flexural buckling.

Bending/ —
Shear/ 220.3 kN
Compression/ —

Bending and compression are not available for class 4 sections; effective properties per EN 1993-1-5 are required.

Yield strength is taken from the product standard for the governing thickness, so above 16 mm it is lower than the nominal grade. Simplified checks per EN 1993-1-1, without M+N+V interaction, without lateral-torsional buckling and without web shear buckling. Verify with a full design.
