number of bolts per end
number of bolts per end
(OP)
i'm an erector with just enough smarts to know that a W24x68x9'3 long requires more than 6 - 3/4 bolts each end. but i need to know my formula is correct. went to school to be a P.E but quit to play pro baseball. yes i'm stupid. can anyone help me?





RE: number of bolts per end
For the 9' beam it may be that the depth and size are not really required and thus, the number of bolts can be less....but for a 93' long beam...the 24" depth seems a bit tad low....

I would just highlight this to the engineer of record and leave it at that.
You may be right, but it could also only require 6 bolts as noted above.
