FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after
the draft finalized by the Structural Sections Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil
Engineering Division Council.
IS 808 : 1989 ‘Dimensions for hot rolled steel beam, column, channel and angle sections ( zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba
third
revision )’ covers channel sections meant for structural application. Channel sections for use in Posts
and Telegraphs Department and for general use as gate channels have been covered in this standard.
This standard was first published in 1962. In this revision apart from general updating, the designa-
tion of channels has been modified. In the preparation of this standard, the Sectional Committee kept
in view manufacturing and trade practices followed in the country in this field.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the
final value, observed or calculated, expressing the results of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding Off numerical values ( revised)‘. The number of signi-
ficant places retainedin the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this
standard.
