It is run through a design program called BeamChek. STEEL BEAMS ARE DESIGNED FOR: Bending strength, shear resistance, deflection, lateral support, web crippling and web yielding are analyzed per the AISC 9th ed. Allowable Stress Design.

2013年4月30日 · You can use a W16x40 (50 ksi) steel beam. This beam is 7" wide, 16" deep and weighs 40 pounds per foot of beam. You will need to provide solid mechanical connections between your floor joists and the top flange of the steel beam to …

A W16x40 is overstressed in strength by 50% and will deflect over 3” when fully loaded. The beam is not even close to working for what you want. I don’t know if he considered the second floor and attic or just one floor, but with two floors and an attic and limiting live load deflection to span/600 for the tile, you need the W21x111.

The bottom cord will be right under the C6x8.2. This means that the neutral axis will be 7'-4" + 1/2 of the "d" (e.g. 8" for the W16x40) from the neutral axis of the W8x17 (the top cord). I was not planning to remove the "bottom cords", i.e. the lower C6x8.2. However if need be the C8x11.5 can be removed though I do not see a reason for this.

I am replacing a 4 ply 2.0E 1-3/4"x24" LVL with a Steel I Beam, but I can not find an equivalence table to convert. I have found that a table that says a Lam Beam 6-3/4" x 25" is equivalent to a W16x40 I Beam. My fear is that LVL is stronger than a Lam Beam and I'll need a larger I Beam. Need an equivalence for 4ply 24" 32' LVL into steel .

Customer: Hi, I’m building a bridge across a small creek for easier field access. The bridge will span 35’ and be 10’ wide consisting of 6 I beams on 24” centers.
