The
C-shape is similar to the S-shape (I Beam) in that its inner
flange surface is also sloped approximately 17 degrees.
The C-shape is especially useful where a single flat surface
on one side is required. Structural channels are
designated by their shape, width, and
weight (in lbs per foot of length), e.g.,
C6 x 13. Bar size channels are designated by their
shape, width, depth, and thickness, e.g., C2 x 1/2 x 1/8.
Although
there is some overlap, a shape is classified Bar Size
when its greatest dimension (excluding length) is less than
3 inches. It is Structural when at least one of its dimension
(excluding length) is 3 inches or greater.
