Answer:

Channel steel is a strip of steel with a cross section. Its specifications are h, * leg width (b) * waist thickness (d) mm number, such as 100*48*5.3, which means waist height of 100 mm, leg width of 48 mm channel, waist thickness of 5.3 mm channel, or 10# channel steel. The same height of the channel, if there are several different leg width and waist thickness, also need to add a, B, C on the right side of the model to distinguish, such as 32a#, 32b#, 32c# and so on.
Non-standard channel steel, with channel steel waist height, leg width, waist thickness and per meter weight as the standard, non-standard channel steel, mainly in order to not affect the safety quality of the premise of cost saving, in high, wide and thick discount. For example, 12# channel weight per meter 6 meters for 12.059kg, 72.354kg, and 12# 6 if a channel is 48kg, then we call it under 33.3% (1-48/72.354). In our country, most of the steel market has sales of non-standard profiles, this is called "cut foot".
Channel steel is divided into ordinary channel steel and light channel steel. Standard Specification for hot-rolled plain channel steel is 5-40#. Specifications for hot rolled flexible channel steel supplied by supply and demand agreement are 6.5-40#. Channel steel is mainly used in building structures, vehicle manufacturing and other industrial structures, and channel steel is often used in conjunction with i-beam.
