    Default C and MC Channel Dynamic Blocks

    I just wanted to post a couple blocks that I have wanted for a while but couldn't seem to find. I realize that there is a Channel dynamic block in the structural tool palette in ACAD 2010, but it does not have filleted corners and does not have all the AISC sizes.
    So here are the C Channel and MC Channel blocks that I finally had time to make. All the dimensions taken from AISC v13.

    You must be using a version newer than 2009? I only get a single block.

    Try exploding the block after you have it inserted in your drawing, then you should be able to see the other properties of the block.

    It is using 2010 dynamic constraint instead of dynamic block parameter and action.

    Hi Lawrence,
    it passed already 1 year from your post... but I have a question!
    I downloaded your dynamic block and it appears that all sizes of channel have the same radius.
    Do you know how to scale the radius? According to rules, the External radius must be 1/2 of Web thickness and internal one=1/2 of flange thickness.

    Thank you.
    Beginner!

    Google or create.
    Most build these DynBlks when needed.
    Maybe someone who happens across this will have one.

    (If I had one I would post)
