You know how, at a deck direction change, you need HSS or something on your steel beams between joists to pick up the deck not parallel to the beam? I'm missing some of those and am in danger of having to pay for them instead of Christmas this year. Is there any kind of CFM member that could be used for this purpose instead of HSS/angles that would be cheap? The loads are nothing of course.

I'm going to violate KootK policy and not supply a sketch here. I'm too busy so, instead, I'm just going to draw upon previously earned good will. Besides, if you don't understand what I've written, you've probably got no business responding anyhow.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
