Calculate steel channel weight from an AISC C-shape preset or custom depth, flange, web, length and quantity.
Describe the task to the AI assistant and continue from the result.
Open AI assistant →Standard or custom weight
Preset C-shapes use designation weight in lb/ft. Custom mode estimates two rectangular flanges plus the web at 490 lb/ft³.
Source and limitation
Standard shape data follows the AISC Shapes Database v16.0. Custom geometry does not model fillets, flange slope or rolling tolerances.
No capacity calculation
This is a weight and optional cost takeoff only; it does not select a channel or verify loads, strength or connections.
