Steel Tubes, Pipes and Fittings Sectional Committee, MTD 19
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after thedraft finalized by the Steel Tubes, Pipes and Fittings Sectional Committee had been approved by theMetallurgical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1968 and was revised in 1985. In view of the recent developments inthe use of hollow steel sections for structural use, the committee decided to revise this standardincorporating the following main modifications :
a) Table 1 has been modified to cover sizes of square hollow sections presently being used.
b) Table 2 has been modified to cover sizes of rectangular hollow sections presently being used in thecountry.
c) References have been updated.
d) Various clauses have been aligned with the present practice being followed.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the finalvalue, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordancewith IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)‘. The number of significant placesretained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
Page 2, clause 9.2) — Insert the following new clause after 9.2:
‘9.3 Concavity and Convexity
The concavity xl or the convexity X2of the sides of a square or rectangular hollowsection shall be measured as shown in Fig. 2. The percentage concavity orconvexity shall be calculated as follows:
xi_xloo ~x 100. l ~ 100. X2 ~ 100B ‘B ‘H ‘H
where B and H are the lengths of the sides containing the concavity xl or theconvexity X2

Review of Indian Standards
Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the basis of comments. Standards are also reviewedperiodically; a standard along with amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates that no changes arcneeded; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up Ihr revision.
