I have been searching the web for the cut section for this old beam size and haven't found anything helpful or useful. It is an old wide flange beam size. Any help would be much appreciated.

That thread was very helpful! I now know I am looking for the AISC 5th Edition version. I do not have access to the pdf of this version, unless someone has a site recommendation
 
The question is why? We're on the 15th edition, and the 16th edition has been released and will likely be adopted into the next building code. Why, in a detail that appears to be new or at least drawn with a computer, are you looking it up in a book printed almost 70 years ago?
 
The above detail is from an existing structure that was built in the '60s
 
The 7th edition has a WT 9x22.5, also has W18x45 to make that TEE shape.
 
The AISC steel shapes database will have that info and is free online
 
I did check the AISC steel shapes database, and it did not include ST 9 WF 22.5. It only included the ST shapes, unfortunately.
 
The 5th Ed. doesn't have ST 9 WF 22.5 but there is an ST 8 WF 22.5. There are also ST 9 WF 27.5 and ST 9WF 25.

I found ST 9 WF 22.5 in the 6th Ed.
 
Can you send me a photo of the ST 9 WF 22.5, found in the 6th ed.?
 
Cut from a W18x45... now a W18x46 or something of that ilk...
