WT's as Shoe Supports 1

[aswierski]

Does anyone have a list of sizes for WT's to serve as shoe supports? I.E. for a 6" STD WT pipe, use a WT4x5, etc. If possible, it would be nice to have the load capacities as well. Just seeing what's out there...

Cor,

Thanks, but I can get the dimensional properties for WT's from my AISC manual. My question is does anyone have a spreadsheet or chart or table that says something along the lines of "For pipe size A thru B, use WT4x5. For pipe sizes C thru D, use WT5x7.5." Ideally this chart would have load capacities, as well.

I'm limited to using WT's for my pipe shoes, and I want to avoid having to run numbers on them. I have a few pipe support catologues (Anvil is my go-to catalogue) but none specify WT sizes for shoes. Can anyone help?
