The latest scanning project is now complete, and I've uploaded this US Steel catalog to my website. It has not only the usual wide flange, channels, angles, etc., but also crane rails, corrugated sheets, sheet piling, floor plates, and "Wide Flange CBP Sections". The latter are H-piles... before US Steel used that nomenclature. See the top of this webpage:

Since they were introduced, H-pile web thickness equals their flange thickness. This is to maximize their life from soil / water corrosion. If a typical, similar sized WF were used as a pile, the (thin) web would corrode through long before the (thicker) flanges.
