Used for defining custom cross-sections for parametric profiles 1.2.4.
By default, the profile catalog acts as a library containing standard profiles (like I-beams, L-shapes, and tubes), environment-specific profiles (AISC, ArcelorMittal, etc.), and generic parametric profiles. tekla structures profile catalog

You cannot model a section that isn't in the catalog. Here is how to add a custom profile.
: The geometry is generated dynamically based on the numbers typed by the user. For instance, typing RECT 400*300 tells Tekla to generate a rectangular cross-section 400mm high by 300mm wide.
It calculates accurate weights and surface areas based on the profile geometry and material density. How to Modify and Customize the Catalog
