HSS14×14×1/4 square/rectangular HSS tube

Detailing dimensions and section properties from the AISC Shapes Database, 16th Edition. Values are shown to the nearest 1/16 in. as they appear on a shop drawing.

HSS14×14×1/4 is a square tube 14 in. by 14 in. with a 1/4 in. nominal wall.

At 46.24 lb per foot it is the lightest of the 8 HSS14×14 sizes, which run from 46.24 to 168.18 lb/ft.

For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 57 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 399 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 65.3 in³.
