UPE 220
EN — 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.
The UPE 220 steel profile weighs 26.6 kg/m (17.88 lb/ft), has a depth of 220 mm (8.66 in), flange width 85 mm (3.35 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,408.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,690.42 cm⁴, Iy = 143.49 cm⁴.
