Old Steel Beams

[connect2]

Has anybody ever come across the following stamped on a steel beam or column, GB A.G. A.E.H. 12x6. The building is from 1914.
Thanks.

Where in the world is the building?
What was it used for originally?

Look to the old Carnegie information. Have you checked Sliderule's site yet?

I haven't checked the Carnagie and Bethlehem shapes yet, but will. Just hoping someone may recognize or have heard of.

Or you could look at the AISC "Iron And Steel Beam Manual 1873 to 1952".
