Steel hollow structural sections (HSS) offer engineers numerous advantages in their designs. Not only do HSS deliver exceptional torsional resistance and compressive strength, but they also have less surface area than open sections and can weigh less in many applications, reducing project costs. In fact, Atlas Tube’s new HSS vs. wide flange comparison tool can calculate how much weight can be saved by switching to HSS. Plus, HSS are aesthetically pleasing and are readily available in a wide range of sizes.
Designing with wide flange columns? Use our comparison tool to see how HSS can increase the efficiency or your designs, saving weight on the project.

Designed to support the longest spans and most extreme loads, Jumbo HSS offer unbeatable efficiency, with strength-to-weight ratios that wide-flange sections can’t match. That means you can build taller and wider while saving tonnage and making the best use of space. So start planning big things today. Atlas Tube is ready to help bring those plans to life.
