(OP)
Does anyone know the dimensions of a W6X13.5? Its a member in a roof truss in a really old building Im doing work on. I can't find it in the 7th, 8th or 9th editions of the AISC. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

If its the chord(s) of a truss, this might be possible.
Just throwing out ideas.

A = 3.98
d = 5.98
Wf = 6.5f = .400
t stem = .240
Ixx = 11.4
Sx = 2.39
rx = 1.69
yx = 1.21
Iyy = 8.3
Sy =2.55
ry = 1.44
The same member is listed in the 1956 printing of the fifth edition and the fourth revised printing of the 6th edition (1967), around the time you mentioned of the building's construction. All the material properties from this edition are the same as listed.

I would always recommend that you go to the site to check that what has been built matches what is on the drawings.
I had a renovation once with a full set of drawings from a reliable company. I assumed that they would be pretty accurate but when I got out on site there were so many differences that some areas had to be redesigned.
