The PFC 150x90x24 is a parallel flange channel reference with the dimensional and section data needed for steel detailing, quantity takeoffs, and preliminary engineering review. This page keeps the published values together with the applicable European standard reference and a downloadable DWG resource.
Use the dimensions below when coordinating drawings or checking a model, then confirm material grade, loading, connection details, and design assumptions before using the section in a structural application. For related terminology, see the site’s references on steel section properties, structural steel connections, and CAD/DWG detailing.
PFC 150x90x24
Parallel Flange Channels
refer to : EN 10365:2017
a European standard that defines the dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties for hot-rolled steel channels, I-beams, and H-beams used in construction and engineering. It ensures uniformity and compatibility across European structural steel products.

Depth : 150 mm
Width : 90 mm
Web Thickness : 6.5 mm
Flange Thickness : 12 mm
Root Fillet Radius : 12 mm
Sectional Area : 30.4 cm2
Unit Weight : 23.9 kg/m
Understanding the PFC 150x90x24 reference
The designation identifies a parallel flange channel, while the listed dimension string provides the principal section dimensions: depth, width, web thickness, and flange thickness. These values are useful when setting out clearances, aligning connected components, and checking whether a section representation matches the intended profile.
Key data for drafting and review
- Depth and width: establish the overall envelope of the channel for layout and coordination.
- Web and flange thickness: help distinguish the profile in drawings and support connection-detailing checks.
- Root fillet radius: identifies the curved transition between the web and flange and may affect fit-up or contact assumptions.
- Sectional area and unit weight: support material takeoffs and reference calculations using the published source values.
Standard and CAD reference
The source identifies EN 10365:2017 as the reference for the channel dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties. Treat the standard reference as part of the section identification when checking procurement information or coordinating European steel shape data.
The linked DWG can support drafting and model coordination. Before issuing fabrication or construction documents, check the drawing scale, units, orientation, material specification, connection geometry, and project requirements against the governing design documents.
Practical design context
A section listing is not a complete design check. Capacity, stability, connection behavior, local detailing, corrosion protection, and material grade must be evaluated for the actual project conditions by a qualified engineer. Use this page as a dimensional and reference aid rather than as a substitute for project-specific verification.
Frequently asked questions
What does PFC mean?
PFC means parallel flange channel. It describes a channel-shaped structural steel profile with parallel flange faces.
What information is provided for the PFC 150x90x24?
The source provides the section dimension string, depth, width, web thickness, flange thickness, root fillet radius, sectional area, and unit weight.
Which standard is referenced?
The listing refers to EN 10365:2017 for the dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties of the profile family.
Is the DWG ready for fabrication?
The DWG is a drafting reference. Review its units, geometry, orientation, and project-specific detailing before using it in fabrication or construction documentation.
Can the listed section data be used for structural design?
The data can support preliminary reference work, but structural design requires project-specific checks for loads, stability, connections, material requirements, and applicable design rules.
