Hello, I came across this thread when researching L bolts to secure a 2x4 wall to a concrete block foundation for a single car garage project I am working on.
I don`t understand the issue with L bolts, I thought they would be superior to a regular bolt with washer. CSA shows you can use them...
I have a 39 ft piece of steel, which will expand/contract 5/16" over an operating temperature of -20C (-4F) to 40C (104F),
using the steel coefficient of expansion.
In that piece of steel, I have 1 3/16" (1.1875") holes, and I'd like to know how much the holes will expand/contract.
Is it only...
