Cimagbo, cold-formed sections · 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 125x50x2 steel profile weighs 3.4 kg/m (2.30 lb/ft), has a depth of 125 mm (4.92 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 436.842 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 103.17 cm⁴, Iy = 10.41 cm⁴.
