C channel steel dimensions
Using high strength steel after the cold bending stick pressure molding
The wall thickness is well-proportioned
The size is adjustable and it has high compressive strength although light
But is very accord with the mechanical characteristics of roof purlin
That steel can make the mechanical performance into play fully
Use this can reduce weight and the dosage of engineering building roof
So it's called economic efficient steel
C purlin used with pressed metal is the best choice in the light steel construction.

Steel c channel Profile or structural steel channel varies in sizes from 3 to 15 inches deep, see figure 34 below. These structural steel channel sizes shown are very similar to how wide flange table works but are different from steel angle tables.

Angle iron is used for light framing such as roof and floor openings. Larger angles of legs 5 inches or more are used for lateral braces as in braced frames or horizontal braces for floors.

For loads that are too heavy for steel angles, but too small for wide flange beams, steel channels are normally used.

The section properties in the table below are used by both architects and engineers to design steel channel sizes necessary to carry the design loads.

To demonstrate how the design tables are used, lets verify the C8x11.5 used in the patio cover shown figure 26 below. In this design, the design load was estimated to be 15 psf dead load and 20 psf live load.

First: check the C8x11.5 at mid span of roof deck. This C8x11.5 is 14 ft long. From moment equation M = wL^2/8. The tributary width is 8 ft (4ft from either side of the C8) so w = 35 psf x 8 ft = 280 plf. Substituting w to the M equation yield M = 280*8^2/8 = 2,240 lb-ft.

The modulus equation S = M/.66Fy = [2240*12/1000]/.66*36 = 1.13 in^3 which is much smaller than the S = 8.14 for C8x11.5, see figure 34.

Second: check the C8 at the column. In this case the span is 16 feet, the tributary width is 14 feet (7 feet from either side of the column). w = 35 psf x 14 ft = 490 plf, M = 490*16^2/8 = 15,680. S = [15680*12/1000]/.66*36 = 7.92 in^3 which is less than 8.14^3, the design is ok.

Galvanized Channel Steel , is a hot rolled, mild steel channel shape with inside radius corners that is ideal for all structural applications, general fabrication and repairs. A36 (Q235)Steel Channel is used in industrial maintenance, building construction,decoration,agricultural implements, transportation equipment, etc. A36(Q235) Steel Channel is also available in a galvanized coated finish.

Steel Beam Design

The steel beam design for I beam described in steel sizing is the exact same procedure for designing any structural steel tube beam, steel c channel beam or structural steel angles.

For the sake of the illustrating the design of steel beam, let’s consider the beam shown below, assuming suspended slab for garage - all dimensions are the same.

Hot and cold rolled steel channels are perfect for all types of industrial structural applications, including structural applications, general fabrication, manufacturing, maintenance, and repairs. Since it’s easy to cut, weld, form, and machine, ASTM A36 steel channel is the preferred choice for industry specialists worldwide.

Industrial Metal Supply Steel Channel Advantages

Both hot rolled and cold rolled steel channel options provide a range of beneficial qualities that make it a standard fixture for many commercial and industrial applications. Steel channel advantages include:

Excellent weldability

Good wear resistance

Enhanced machining capabilities

Superior bending and forming

Hot rolled steel channel has a mild steel structural C shape with inside radius corners that are ideal for all structural applications.

The shape of this product is ideal for added strength and rigidity over steel angle when a project's load is vertical or horizontal.

Additionally, this steel shape is easy to weld, cut, form, and machine.

Hot rolled steel channel is used in numerous types of industrial applications, including:

General fabrication

Manufacturing

Repairs

Frames

Trailers

Ceiling systems

Construction supports

 A1008

Also known as cold-rolled channel (CRC), cold-rolled u-channel is strong, resilient, and provides increased yield strength and hardness qualities that hot rolled steel does not possess.

Cold rolled ASTM A1008 steel channel products are used for the following applications:

Drop ceilings

Structural bracing

Bridging

Supports

Framing designs
