This part of this European Standard specifies technical delivery conditions for hot finished hollow sections of circular, square, rectangular or elliptical forms and applies to hollow sections formed hot, with or without subsequent heat treatment, or formed cold with subsequent heat treatment to obtain equivalent metallurgical conditions to those obtained in the hot formed product.
Requirements for tolerances, dimensions and sectional properties are contained in EN 10210-2:
The formulae for calculating sectional properties of sections manufactured to the dimensional tolerances of this standard, to be used for the purposes of structural design, are given in Annex A.
Dimensions and sectional properties for a limited range of sizes are given in Annex B.
Technical delivery conditions are specified in EN 10210-1.
This European Standard (EN 10210-1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee ECISS/TC 10 “Structural steels – Grades and qualities”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This European Standard supersedes EN 10210-1:1994.
This standard consists of the following parts under the general title ‘Hot finished structural hollow sections of non-alloy and fine grain steels’:
- Part 1: Technical delivery conditions
- Part 2: Tolerances, dimensions and sectional properties
It forms part of series of standards on hollow sections together with EN 10219-1 and 2, which are also under revision.
