It appears that AISC-360 does not directly address channels with slender flanges, probably because it states that there are no slender channel shapes. But lets say you have a custom channel size, is there a section in AISC that you would use for this? Or maybe address it using AISI S200 Cold Formed Steel Design?

Thanks!

I'd probably use the 9th edition (i.e. the green book) of AISC. It specifically addresses noncompact channels.
