Nomenclature for structural steel shapes
(OP)
Our company is trying to standardize the way we call out structural steel in the BOM of our drawings. Is there a specific standard or publication that covers this?
Example: C5 x 6.7 x 12 for channel iron or L3 x 3 x 1/8 x 12 for angle iron.
The shapes we use most often are channel, angle, "I" beams, wide flange beams, square/rectangular tubing, flat bar, plate, and round tubing (not pipe).
Thanks!
James
