The study aims to evaluate the economic significance of the Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) in contrast with open sections. This study was carried out to determine the percentage economy achieved using Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) so as to understand the importance of cost effectiveness. The technique used in order to achieve the objective included the comparison of different profiles for various combinations of height and material cross-section for given span and loading conditions. The analysis and design phase of the project was performed using STAAD PRO V8i. The sample results of STAAD analysis were validated with the results of Manual analysis
