Clearance at Steel Beam and Soil
Clearance at Steel Beam and Soil
(OP)
What is the minimum clearance between a structural steel floor beam and the crawl space soil? I can't find anything in the California Building Code (CBC) 2007, based on the IBC 2006 or the ASCE 7-05. I can find weep screed clearance, and wood clearance, but not that required for exposed steel beams.
Thanks for any help,
Taco

But the crawlspace access makes more sense and should be applicable to all materials.
Sorry, thinking out loud, much appreciated.
