NBE EA-95, 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 250x80x25x3 steel profile weighs 10.4 kg/m (6.96 lb/ft), has a depth of 250 mm (9.84 in), flange width 80 mm (3.15 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,320.789 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,222.318 cm⁴, Iy = 109.651 cm⁴.
