Cintac, 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 300x100x6 steel profile weighs 22.6 kg/m (15.20 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,881.578 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,683.881 cm⁴, Iy = 254.713 cm⁴.
