SW Professional, is there a way to determine how much weight a formed channel can hold?

Model is 6 inch wide by 6 foot long channel with 1 inch flanges. Carbon steel.

Is there a way in SW Professional to determine how much weight this channel will hold? Face side up with object (weight) seated on it and flanges (legs) set on floor.

SolidWorks Simulation will do this for you. You can take a class, or there may be online tutorials.
