Thanks guys, I dont know why google wasn't turning up sites with WT shapes for me. I guess its Friday, and I am looking forward to Turkey next week.

I can find W-shapes and L-shapes. Does anyone know of a site where I can look sizes and properties for WT shapes? Thanks.

I am looking for an online resource for part 4 of the National Building Code of Canada. Does anyone know of an online resource without having to purchase the full code? The Design Loads listed in CAN/CSA Z721-98 (Safety Code for Elevated Platforms) lists the loads specified in Part 4 of the...

Thanks a lot, that proved very useful.

Hello, I have been given the task to design the barrier for the bridge I am working on and this is the first time I have actually had to go through the design process of the barrier. The state I previously lived only required to call out the barrier standard applicable and then incorporate...

great, thank you.

I have an irregular cruciform shape that I need to calculate the Warping Constant, Cw, for per CSA S6-06 10.9.3.2(a). I have tried using LARSA section composer but I can not find a calculated Cw in any of the properties. Does anyone know if AutoCAD or Microstation can pull out Cw? Or some...

Yes I am using it in the CSA S6-06 code section 10.10.2.3. After a day of research I have found that the coefficient of monosymmetry for a doubly symmetric shape and channels in bending about its strong axis is zero. A lot of work for nothing, but now I know. Thanks for the help. And the...

Hello, I am having the hardest time trying to find a formula for the coefficient of monosymmetry for an MC shape. Everything I find is set up for an I-shape. If anyone has some insight into this I would appreciate it. Thanks, Jesse

I know little French except... Merci beaucoup

Our design criteria calls out for the use of CAN/CSA-G40.21 Grade 350W structural steel. I know that this is equivalent to 50ksi for Fy, but what is Fu? For the life of me I can not find it online or in any books in our office library. Our office just ordered the CISC handbook, so I wont have...

I am needing to model the connection of where a top arch meets the bottom chord. Both members are a hollow steel pipe. However the Arch has a parabolic shape. I need a little help starting my model and would like to know if anyone has some hints or aides for helping me. Thanks.

My new employer uses SAP to model its bridge design I am just now learning how to pick it up. I have created my model have created also defined my loads. I went to Define->Load Cases and have created load names such as LL1, LL2, LL3, SDEAD...and so forth. I have also appllied these load on...
