Can a steel beam span a 40 foot distance I wanted to know if it's possible to span a 40 foot distance for a residential build with steel beams with no intermediate support columns ?

The dimensions of the beam are: Wow, exactly what I was looking for. 1A) Steel beam span length This is the effective span length of the beam, the distance from the centre of one end bearing to the centre of the other end bearing.For example, if the clear distance between supports is 3m and the beam has a minimum end bearing length of 0.1m at both ends, you would work out the effective span length as follows: 36 or 50: Select Beam The dimensions of a girder would be the same, but the flange would be thicker. 40/10=50psf: Yield Strength of Steel (KSI) e.g. The width of this beam would be between 1/3 and ½ the depth. I am building a shed, I would like to buy a steel beam that spans 30 feet, the shed is 30x30 feet. Hello, I just signed up to add a question of my own to this post. Steel Construction – Rules of Thumb Floors (Beams and Girders) To calculate the necessary depth of a beam, divide the span (in inches) by 20.

A rule of thumb for a steel truss is one inch per foot of span or in your case 40 inches. The most common type of steel beam used in construction is the I-beam, which is also known as an H-beam or W-beam. When my father built our log home he was lucky enough to come across some very heavy duty steel beams for free.

I realize it's 10 years old but, thought it would make sense to keep the topic in spec for others to find in one place. [])). Needless to say, if there's any sag after 23 years, it's a tiny fraction of an inch. I'm interested in using a steel I beam for the main support beam(s) in my yet to be constructed project. Span Length: 40 ft. Beam Depth: 10 in. I-shaped beams are effective at carrying bending and shear weight across their centers. so an open floor plan and no columns.

There are no modern wide flange sections 21" deep with 7-3/4" flanges. Please enable Cookies and reload the page. You would need to measure the flange thickness and web thickness and look through the AISC historical section database to determine what shape it is and get it's properties, knowing what era it is from would make it easier.
