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 175x75x4 steel profile weighs 9.8 kg/m (6.58 lb/ft), has a depth of 175 mm (6.89 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,247.368 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 578.234 cm⁴, Iy = 67.33 cm⁴.
