FAQ
What does 203 x 203 x 52 UC mean?
This refers to the universal column?s cross-section dimensions and unit weight: 203mm depth, 203mm flange width, and 52kg per metre. The UC has near-equal flange and web dimensions for uniform structural behaviour.
What grade of steel is used in this column?
The 203 x 203 x 52KG Universal Column is made from S355J0 steel, which offers high strength and good impact resistance. The ?J0? designation means it?s tested to 27 joules at 0?C, making it suitable for UK climate and structural safety standards.
Can this universal column be used externally?
Yes, with the appropriate surface treatment. While the steel itself is strong, we recommend galvanising or applying a protective coating for external use to prevent corrosion over time.
Is this profile suitable for welding and fabrication?
Yes. S355J0 steel has excellent weldability and is commonly used in fabricated structural frames. It can be cut, drilled, and welded using standard steelwork techniques.
Can I order this 203 x 203 x 52 UC cut to length?
Absolutely. BM Steel offers in-house cutting services?just let us know your required lengths, and we?ll prepare the sections accordingly.
What structural loads can this universal column handle?
The load capacity depends on the length, bracing, and specific project design. Structural engineers typically use span/load tables or FEA models to confirm exact performance. We can supply technical data on request.
