Australian Rolled Steel Joists

Hey,

Hey could somebody please post a property table for steel sections from the good old imperial days? Dimensions for a 12 by 5 tapered flange beam would be awesome.

Thanks,
Paul

Thanks Apsix, that's the one I was after.

No worries

Most of the properties are also shown in Spacegass (and possibly Microstran also) if you have access to that.

I haven't seen an RSJ call up in years.

It's a first for me. Some guy built this big bin/hop thing out of the scrap metal in his yard and wants it certified

The 1967 BHP sections book I have notes 230 MPa yield for that TFB.

Thanks apsix, I was assuming 250MPa

Is there any markings on the steel to confirm it is a bhp section, otherwise there is a good case to reject the steel based on the uncertainty of the material being used.
