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 180x60x4.75 steel profile weighs 10.6 kg/m (7.12 lb/ft), has a depth of 180 mm (7.09 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,350.781 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 610.538 cm⁴, Iy = 42.248 cm⁴.
