UPE 80 — Dimensions & Section Properties
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.
Also known as: UPE 80 (UK / Australia)
The UPE 80 steel profile weighs 7.9 kg/m (5.31 lb/ft), has a depth of 80 mm (3.15 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 672 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 67.82 cm⁴, Iy = 15.34 cm⁴.
