PART 1 SECTION PROPERTIES<br />

D1.1 INTRODUCTION<br />

The section property tables include all relevant section dimensions and properties necessary for assessing<br />

‘DuraGal’ tubular steel structures in accordance with AS 4100 - 1998.<br />

D1.2 SECTION PROPERTY TABLES<br />

For each group of structural hollow section the tables include:<br />

• Dimensions and Properties<br />

• Properties for Assessing Section Capacity to AS 4100.<br />

D1.2.1<br />

Dimensions and Properties<br />

The tables give standard dimensions and properties for DuraGal structural steel hollow <strong>sections</strong>. The<br />

second moments of area are required for serviceability calculations and the radii of gyration are required<br />

for assessing member stability. The elastic and plastic section moduli for bending about the various axes<br />

are also tabulated. These are utilised in an intermediate step to determine the effective section modulus<br />

for flexural design to AS 4100. The elastic section moduli are also used in the determination of elastic<br />

stresses where design for fatigue must be considered, or where the stress state at serviceability loads<br />

may need to be checked. The torsion constants are used in determining the torsional moment and angle<br />

of twist per unit length.<br />
