Moreover, to allow Architects to reach even greater heights, the range of rolled
shape sizes has also been extended. Since 2011, Super Jumbo shapes (HD400)
(W14"x16") are available up to 1299 kg/m (873 lbs/ft) and HL 920 (W36"x16.5")
up to 1377 kg/m (925 lbs/ft) increasing the world record of thickness (140mm)
and weight.

Thereby, more than 200 shape sizes are available in grade 485 MPa (70ksi).
For typical gravity columns, the heaviest Super Jumbo in grade 485 MPa (70
ksi) can carry 40% more loads than the previously heaviest Jumbos in Grade 345
MPa (50 ksi). This means also 40% weight savings respectively carbon foot print
reduction.
With new modern steels and sections sustainable building materials are
available for Super Tall Buildings.
