ISMC 175
IS — Cold-formed Channel
Cold-formed channels (U shapes) are similar to C shapes but without stiffening lips. Used for light structural framing, supports, and secondary members.
Also known as: ISMC 175 (UK / Australia)
The ISMC 175 steel profile weighs 19.6 kg/m (13.17 lb/ft), has a depth of 175 mm (6.89 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,842 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 832.8 cm⁴, Iy = 87.41 cm⁴.
