Channels 150 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC 17.7KG/MTR

Premium Mild Steel Channel for Construction Projects in Sydney, NSW

In Sydney's evolving construction landscape, structural efficiency and performance are critical factors for successful building projects. The Channels 150 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC (Parallel Flange Channel) at 17.7KG/MTR represents a superior structural solution that delivers exceptional strength and span capability for construction professionals throughout New South Wales.

Technical Specifications

This heavy-duty mild steel channel features substantial dimensions with a 150mm height and 75mm flange width, providing impressive load-bearing capacity at 17.7 kilograms per metre. The extended 9-metre length offers significant advantages for spanning major distances while minimizing structural joints in demanding applications.

Manufactured in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS 3679.1, this PFC ensures consistent performance with a minimum yield strength of 300 MPa and tensile strength between 430-510 MPa. The parallel flange design provides optimal stress distribution and simplified connection details compared to traditional tapered channels.

Applications in Sydney's Construction Industry

Residential Construction

In Sydney's luxury residential projects, these substantial channels excel as primary beams supporting entire floor systems, major structural elements in multi-level homes, critical support members for cantilevered architectural features, and essential components in high-end custom residences where structural performance cannot be compromised.

Commercial Building Applications

Sydney's commercial construction sector utilizes these channels for primary framing in medium to large structures, significant transfer beams supporting multiple floor levels, major support systems for building services in larger facilities, and critical structural elements in commercial spaces requiring maximum clear spans.

Industrial Construction

Throughout NSW's industrial facilities, these channels serve as primary structural members in manufacturing buildings, substantial support beams for heavy equipment installations, major overhead crane runway beams, and essential structural components in facilities where significant loads must be accommodated.

Engineering Considerations

The section properties of the 150 x 75 PFC channel provide exceptional moment of inertia and section modulus, enabling superior load-bearing capacity and excellent deflection control. Sydney engineers specify these channels for critical applications where structural performance is paramount and where larger spans or heavier loads must be accommodated.

Connection details require careful engineering consideration, typically employing substantial bolted connections with high-strength bolts or fully welded joints designed to develop the full capacity of the section. Sydney's construction standards require comprehensive structural analysis and detailed connection design for these major structural elements.

Installation Best Practices

The substantial weight and extended length necessitate mechanical handling equipment, careful transportation planning, and specialized installation procedures. Sydney's coastal environment requires comprehensive corrosion protection, typically through hot-dip galvanizing or multi-coat paint systems depending on exposure conditions.

Building Supply Advantages for NSW Projects

As a premium building supply in Sydney's construction market, these substantial mild steel channels offer several advantages:

• Exceptional load capacity for spanning major distances
• Reduced structural complexity through fewer supporting elements
• Compatibility with engineered connection systems
• Availability through specialized steel suppliers throughout NSW

For construction professionals tackling demanding structural challenges across Sydney and NSW, the 150 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC at 17.7KG/MTR delivers the optimal combination of strength, performance, and engineering excellence.
