SkyCiv C Channel Load Capacity Calculator is a free tool designed to help you determine the strength and capacity of steel channel beams. This calculator is based on the AISC 360-16 steel design standard. It calculates the capacity of a channel and angle section based on the dimensions, span length and design loads you enter.

The c channel span calculator takes into account various factors such as material grade, section size, and span length to estimate the beam’s load capacity. This tool is invaluable for preliminary design and planning, allowing for efficient material selection and structural optimization.

1 cm 4 = 10-8 m = 10 4 mm; 1 in 4 = 4.16x10 5 mm 4 = 41.6 cm 4; 1 cm 3 = 10-6 m = 10 3 mm; The standard method for specifying the dimensions of a American Standard Steel Channels is like C 5 x 9. which is a beam 5 inches deep with a weight 9 lb/ft.. I-shaped cross-section beams:

Load Capacity Rating Notes 1 - Capacities are for static loads only and are determined per 2002 RMI and 2001 AISI specifications. 2 - Capacities apply to uniformly loaded beams and include impact load. 3 - For beams greater than 60"L supporting one load wide, contact SpaceRAK Engineering.
