I have an old H table but not an S. I would contact SJI they should have that information on hand. (

The "S" series was made back in the early 60's by a number of different manufacturers. Either contact SJI or purchase their catalog of old joists.

I show four 16" S-series joists. Which one did you need?

Thanks.

I show the last revision to the SJI for S series joists dated October 26, 1960 - the J series is indicated after this date. The first standard loading table showing the S series is dated June 26, 1958, effective January 1, 1959. Prior to this date I show the SJ series.
