HSS24×14×1/4 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.

HSS24×14×1/4 is a rectangular tube 24 in. by 14 in. with a 1/4 in. nominal wall.

At 63.25 lb per foot it is the lightest of the 6 HSS24×14 sizes, which run from 63.25 to 181.37 lb/ft.

For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 117 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 1410 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 140 in³.
