IAS, 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 175x75x15x4 steel profile weighs 10.3 kg/m (6.94 lb/ft), has a depth of 175 mm (6.89 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,314.736 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 616.152 cm⁴, Iy = 85.531 cm⁴.
