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 200x50x2 steel profile weighs 4.6 kg/m (3.10 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 586.842 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 316.373 cm⁴, Iy = 11.766 cm⁴.
