Cintac, cold-formed sections · 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 C 250x50x15x2 steel profile weighs 5.8 kg/m (3.87 lb/ft), has a depth of 250 mm (9.84 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 733.684 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 610.202 cm⁴, Iy = 19.682 cm⁴.
