SAISC, 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 275x75x20x3 steel profile weighs 10.4 kg/m (7.02 lb/ft), has a depth of 275 mm (10.83 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,335.789 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,437.391 cm⁴, Iy = 87.515 cm⁴.
