I want to use UPE and UPN channels from European Sections in GT STRUDL. The GT STRUDL has Table Name "U" for channels of European sections, which has some standard sections. However, the sections from "U" Table of GT STRUDL do not have similar sectional properties as UPE and UPN. Is there any other way to use UPE and UPN channels, other than defining the section as Prismatic and manually assigning the section properties?

I would go with "U" channels defined at GT STRUDL for preliminary design then use user defined sections UPE and UPN with manually assigning the section properties for refined calculations.

According to the grace of God which is given
unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. . . .

Thanks @HTURKAK. Do you have a GTSTRUDL file where you have used a user defined sections and applied a code check command on it. If yes, can you please send it to me?
