For the B16 studs you can use 25,000 PSI at 800 degF and 23,500 PSI at 850 degF if the stud diameter is less than 2 1/2". Use 25,000 PSI for all temperatures under 800 degF. Minimum yield strength is 105,000 PSI, minimum tensile strength is 125,000 PSI, mean coefficient of thermal expansion is 7.85 x 10^-6 in./in./degF at 825 degF.
