Hi Jed,
Hoping you catch this post. I've been searching high and low for any information on old Robertson 7.5" deep steel deck products (circa 1950s-1960s) and the only things I have found so far are a few of your posts on various engineering forums indicating that you have some old catalogues.
If you have any information you could upload somewhere, it would be most appreciated. Basically need info pertaining to general geometry, yield stress, load-carrying capacity, web crippling capacity at ends etc.
I tried accessing a file you uploaded here on March 25th:

But for some reason, it seems to be blank or expired.
Thanks very much!
Phillip

But there's no way I care enough to check it while I'm on vacation. Come'on Jed, put the iPhone down and enjoy your R&R.

wife: is it really that important?
me: if it weren't, then I wouldn't be talking about it 4 months in advance and thinking about it all year long.

I had to reduce the file's size to upload it, so take a look and post a note if that's a problem.
SlideRuleEra, feel free to upload this to your website.

Just a quick question on it, though, since you're probably more familiar with the product than I. On page 14, for the 5-7.5 profile deck system, it doesn't show span/load tables for 14 Ga or heavier. The existing building I'm looking at has the 14 Ga deck spanning 30 ft between masonry bearing walls. Load shown on the drawings is 60 psf total (snow + dead), so even if one was to extrapolate capacity based on the section modulii shown, it seems the deck wouldn't be rated for 60 psf?
