European foreword
This document (prEN 10219-2:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee ECISS/TC 103
“Structural steels other than reinforcements”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 10219-1:2006.
This standard consists of the following parts under the general title 'Cold formed welded structural
steel hollow sections’:
— Part 1: General
— Part 2: Technical delivery conditions
— Part 3: Tolerances, dimensions and sectional properties
It forms part of a series of standards on hollow sections together with prEN 10210-1 to prEN 10210-3.

1 Scope
This part of prEN 10219 specifies the technical delivery conditions for electric welded and submerged
arc welded cold formed structural steel hollow sections of circular, square, rectangular or elliptical
forms and applies to structural hollow sections formed cold without subsequent heat treatment.
The general conditions (product characteristics, test methods and performance criteria that apply
under the Construction Products Regulations) are specified in prEN 10219-1 and the requirements for
tolerances, dimensions and sectional properties in prEN 10219-3.
NOTE 1 prEN 10219-1 covers provision of the Construction Products Regulations (CPR) to fulfil European law
for construction products. The technical delivery conditions are described within prEN 10219-2 in combination
with Clauses 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 of prEN 10219-1.
NOTE 2 The attention of users is drawn to the fact that whilst cold formed grades in prEN 10219-2 can have
equivalent mechanical properties to hot-finished grades in prEN 10210-2 the sectional properties of square and
rectangular hollow sections in prEN 10219-3 and prEN 10210-3 are not equivalent.
NOTE 3 A range of steel grades is specified in this European Standard and the user should select the grade most
appropriate to the intended use and service conditions. The grades and mechanical properties, but not the final
supply condition of cold formed hollow sections are comparable with those in EN 10025-2, EN 10025-3,
EN 10025-4, EN 10025-5, EN 10025-6, EN 10149-2 and EN 10149-3.
NOTE 4 Hollow sections for offshore structures are covered in EN 10225.

— as rolled (+AR) or normalized/normalized rolled (+N) or thermomechanically rolled (+M) for steels
according to Annex A;
— normalized/normalized rolled (N) for steels of qualities N and NL according to B;
— thermomechanically rolled (M) for steels of quality M and ML according to Annex C;
— quenched and tempered (Q) for steels of qualities Q, QL and QL1 according to Annex D;
— as rolled (+AR) ) or normalized/normalized rolled (+N) for steels with improved atmospheric
corrosion resistance (W) according to Annex E.
6.6 Delivery condition
The hollow sections shall be delivered cold formed without subsequent heat treatment except that the
weld seam may be in the as welded or heat treated condition.
NOTE For SAW hollow sections, it may be necessary to perform a warm shaping operation, which does not
affect the mechanical properties, in order to meet the out-of-roundness tolerance requirements.
The surface shall be in the as rolled condition.
Option 2.2 Other possible surface conditions are:
a) S1 black;
b) S2 pickled feedstock;
c) S3 pickled hollow section;
d) S4 hot-dip-zinc coated feedstock;
e) S5 hot-dip-zinc coated hollow section.
