(OP)
Can anyone give me the load table data for the 24J8 open web steel bar joist (36'-0" span) from the catalog in effect in 1965?

RE: 24J8 Joists circa 1965

From my old catalog

24J8 - Resisting Moment 540,000 #-in
       Max End Reaction 5,000 #

Wtg per foot 12.4 lbs

At 30' span 333 #/ft from table for total load.

The info is from Standard Load Table May 30, 1961.  The next one I have after that is for H-Joists 1971
