ABNT NBR 6355 · Cold-formed Lipped Channel
Cold-formed lipped channels (C shapes) are lightweight profiles commonly used as purlins, girts, and light framing members. The stiffening lips increase local buckling resistance. Designed per AISI S100 and NBR 14762.
The Ue 100x50x17x1.50 steel profile weighs 2.6 kg/m (1.77 lb/ft), has a depth of 100 mm (3.94 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 336.197 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 54.164 cm⁴, Iy = 12.345 cm⁴.
