Very little context. It is in a list of building materials.

Ring any bells? (RSJ???)

standard L-sections
Explanation:
They're apparently perfiles (sections) like the UPN:

La carpintería que se plantea en el detalle 1 está formada por un orden primario de perfiles de acero que participan de la estructura resistente del edificio (10) y un orden secundario de **perfiles LPN de acero*** para fijar los paneles (6, 7 y 1), bien mediante un cordón de silicona o mediante un junquillo de aluminio.http://www.buildnet.es/proyectos/detalles/sol2/sol2.htm

However, I couldn't find any "LPN sections" like the UPN refs. to a European standard, so maybe they're just standard "L" sections (assuming the N is "normal" like in the UPN refs).

Enhanced edition of the company's CAD software for piping and plant design has been released. The software includes a new steel module for plant design, and it also supports AutoCAD 2002. Supplied at no extra cost, the steel module allows the user to model a variety of steel section in 3D, making light work of modeling even the most complicated of steel structures. Steel module comes with a number of steel shapes such as I-sections, U-sections and ***L-sections*** designed to most international standards. CADWorx/PIPE Version 3.20.

Anyway, no time to look further, but maybe this will get you started.

"L" perfil normal.

This is totally based on Cindy's answer; if she is right then this could be also.

I suggest you research it further.
