1968 H-Series Joists
1968 H-Series Joists
(OP)
Analyzing some old H-series joists that have some new point loads. My question is, do these joists have a constant moment and shear capacity along their length? My initial thought is possibly not. What is the point of the "newer" KCS joists if H or K series *do* have constant capacities? I have specified KCS joists a number of times when point loads were varied and not always directly known ahead of time.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

KootK - that is very good news for my situation. I will have to look for that spec section.
