U 190x50x3.05

BR — 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 U 190x50x3.05 steel profile weighs 10.3 kg/m (6.92 lb/ft), has a depth of 190 mm (7.48 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 856.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 416.33 cm⁴, Iy = 15.81 cm⁴.
