Reply all above: To youngstrucutal: The load code is ASCE 7. To SperlingPE: Why do you think we need contact the supplier? We are structural engineers. I think we need to find it out by ourselves using wind speed and building dimesions, etc. To SteveGregory: what's code you refer? where are...

No. I ask for structural code/standard for pultrusions as strucutral members, not ASTM standards. Thanks anyway.

Hi everyone, Is it possible to reach a modulus of elasticity 800 ksi using common glass fibers such as E glass, R glass or S glass, not carbon fibers? I am looking for a composite I profile instead of aluminum I profile within some limits on dimensions of the I section. I need a high modulus...

Hi everyone, How to calculate positive and negative wind loads of a ridge skylight or hip skylight located at a flat roof of a building? Any comment appreciated.

Thanks, volpegrigia! I checked the pultrusion council and contact some companies already and they have small a little larger I profiles. I'll check Werner Aluminum. Thank you.

Hi everyone, Anyone know any national code/standard as a reference for the structural design/calculation/check of composite/pultruded structural members? Thanks for any input.

Hi folks, Anyone know and can provide any information about some FRP suppliers or pultrusion suppliers which can supply a very small composite/pultruded I profile available? The dimensions of the I profile I am looking for are about 0.5" (flange width) x 2.75" (height), 1/8" thick or so for...

Hi everyone, Is it possible to achieve a modulus of elasticity 800 ksi using common glass fibers such as E glass, R glass or S glass, not carbon fibers? I am looking for a composite I profile instead of aluminu I profile within some limits on dimensions of the I section. I need a high modulus...
