Channels 180 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC 20.9KG/MTR

Premium Mild Steel Channel for Construction Projects in Sydney, NSW

In Sydney's sophisticated construction market, structural integrity and engineering excellence are fundamental requirements for successful building projects. The Channels 180 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC (Parallel Flange Channel) at 20.9KG/MTR represents a high-capacity structural solution that delivers exceptional performance for demanding applications throughout New South Wales.

Technical Specifications

This heavy-duty mild steel channel features impressive dimensions with a 180mm height and 75mm flange width, providing substantial load-bearing capacity at 20.9 kilograms per metre. The extended 9-metre length offers significant advantages for spanning major distances in critical structural applications while minimizing connection points.

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 configuration provides optimal stress distribution and simplified connection details for complex structural systems.

Applications in Sydney's Construction Industry

Residential Construction

In Sydney's premium residential developments, these substantial channels excel as primary structural members in luxury homes, major transfer beams supporting multiple floor levels, critical elements in architecturally complex designs, and essential components in high-end multi-level residences where structural performance is paramount.

Commercial Building Applications

Sydney's commercial construction sector utilizes these channels for primary framing in larger structures, significant transfer beams supporting substantial loads, major structural elements in multi-story buildings, and critical components in commercial facilities requiring maximum clear spans and floor space efficiency.

Industrial Construction

Throughout NSW's industrial facilities, these channels serve as primary structural members in manufacturing buildings, substantial crane runway beams, major support structures for heavy equipment, and essential components in facilities where significant loads and vibration resistance are required.

Engineering Considerations

The section properties of the 180 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 cannot be compromised and where larger spans or substantial loads must be accommodated.

Connection details require comprehensive engineering analysis, 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 detailed structural analysis and connection design for these major structural elements.

Installation Best Practices

The substantial weight and extended length necessitate mechanical handling equipment, specialized transportation planning, and professional installation procedures. Sydney's coastal environment requires comprehensive corrosion protection, typically through hot-dip galvanizing or engineered coating 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:

• Superior load capacity for critical structural applications
• Reduced structural complexity through fewer supporting elements
• Compatibility with engineered connection systems
• Availability through specialized steel suppliers throughout NSW

For construction professionals addressing significant structural challenges across Sydney and NSW, the 180 x 75 x 9 metres Mild Steel PFC at 20.9KG/MTR delivers the optimal combination of strength, performance, and engineering excellence.
