I am interested in finding out the likely origin of a large taper flange I beam (as a born and bred Brit I would normally call it a RSJ). Overall depth 910mm (35.8"
, width 420mm (16.5", web thickness 20mm ((0.79", flange 28 to 37 mm (1.1 to 1.5".
I am only asking out of plain curiosity (we already know the steel strength and have calculated the section properties); I have never come across such a section before. (And "before" covers a fairly long span
).
None of my references show RSJs (would these be called S beams in the USA?) anywhere as large as these, which have been procured by an Aus contractor, who intends to use them for some temporary work.
