I am Working on a building from 1968 with Historical Steel sections called out as 10B19 and 12B16.5

Looking through the Historical AISC Excel database I haven't been able to come across any steel shapes that match theses callout. The Closest sections I can find for the 12B16.5 is a B12 (weight 18.4 plf or 23 plf) from the USS manual 1946.

The Closest sections I can find for the 10B19 is a B10 (weight 25.4 plf) from the USS manual 1946.

Any help to finding a reference would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
