IAS, 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 120x75x2 steel profile weighs 4.1 kg/m (2.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 120 mm (4.72 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 526.842 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 128.605 cm⁴, Iy = 31.26 cm⁴.
