The double angle with a plate in between was about 38 plf so the tee being 47 plf is heavier and has a ltitle more section.

The load would vertical positive on the rail in the sketch above. No tension in the bolts.

You are correct. The 60 kips (worst case) is a vertical reaction force due to the weight of the conveyor boom truss. The above detail is a section of the bottom chord showing the rail that rides on wheels mounted on the main support structure. My question is about how it is attached and I think...

Maximum vertical reaction would be about 60 kips with a side loading maximum from wind of about 8 kips.

Here is the rail attachment section. The flange would have to be wider and the tee section heavier to allow the attachment of the rail using clips.

I'm working on a project replacing a telescoping conveyor boom. The rail is attached to the underside of the boom truss. The original rail was riveted through the base of the rail into the double angle bottom chord. We are using a WT as the new chord but still want to bolt the base of the rail...
