What else can I help you with?
To remove 8 feet of load bearing wall and replace with steel beam what size beam?
With a span of only 8" you can probably use a wood beam, but without a set of plans no one can accurately answer your question.
What size steel eye beam can safely span 14 feet with a point load of 4000 pounds in the middle?
There are a lot of considerations to be taken into account for sizing steel shapes, especially for a residential home. For instance, what are the load imposed upon the beam? How will the beam be supported? What environment will the beam sit in (i.e. high humidity, moisture, vibration)? A licensed professional engineer or architect in your state can better answer this question.
How do you calculate load on steel beams?
try this website it might help - http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/beams-support-forces-d_1311.html first off the calculations are based on beam size (example w14x26 [14=14" x26=lbs. ) which is around 5 3/16" wide x 13 7/8" high the flange thickness is around 3/8" thick and the web would be 1/4" wide you also must check the span and application (concrete Pier's, or schedule 40 columns (1/4" thick steel column) there are other factors which are involved in other words consult your engineer
What size of I-beam will span 22 feet with a mid-point load of 850 lbs.?
Depends on the material the I-beam is made out of. Steel? Is it a wood I-joist? And I-beams come in different "flavors" as regards the geometry and cross section of the web. Variables in a question make for a variable answer.
What size of beam is needed to span 10 feet if used only for roof support?
The size of the beam needed to span 10 feet for roof support depends on various factors, including the type of material (wood, steel, etc.), the load it will carry, and local building codes. For a typical wooden beam, a common choice might be a 2x10 or 2x12, but calculations based on specific load requirements and spacing are essential. It's advisable to consult a structural engineer or local building codes to determine the exact specifications for safety and compliance.
What size steel I beam do I need to span 32 feet with a load of 2500LB at center?
What size steel I beam do I need to span a 32 feet garage with a floored storage above and no posts
To remove 8 feet of load bearing wall and replace with steel beam what size beam?
With a span of only 8" you can probably use a wood beam, but without a set of plans no one can accurately answer your question.
What is the purpose of compression reinforcement in beams?
Steel is stronger than concrete. By adding some reinforcement in the compression zone of a beam, it's bending strength can be increased without increasing the size of the beam. The steel increases the compression strength, while the concrete prevents the slender steel bars from buckling.
How much weight the steel you beam hold?
The weight a steel I beam can hold depends on its dimensions, material properties, and the way it is supported. Steel beams are typically rated based on their load-bearing capacity in pounds per foot or kilonewtons per meter. To determine the exact weight a specific steel I beam can hold, you would need to consult structural engineering tables or software that consider factors such as the beam's span, section modulus, and moment of inertia.
What size steel eye beam can safely span 14 feet with a point load of 4000 pounds in the middle?
There are a lot of considerations to be taken into account for sizing steel shapes, especially for a residential home. For instance, what are the load imposed upon the beam? How will the beam be supported? What environment will the beam sit in (i.e. high humidity, moisture, vibration)?

What size and type of a steel beam do I need to span 22'3 and support a 10' deep storage loft for an ATV and sled?
W8 x 24
What is the recommended size and material for the support beam needed to reinforce a load-bearing wall in a residential structure?
The recommended size and material for a support beam to reinforce a load-bearing wall in a residential structure is typically a steel or engineered wood beam that is sized according to the specific load requirements of the wall. It is important to consult with a structural engineer to determine the exact specifications needed for the support beam.
What does the term W 8 x 17 stand for on construction drawings?
This is a designation used in the steel industry and construction industry for a wide flange, steel beam, commonly referred to as an I-beam. The W indicates a wide flange shape (as opposed to other shapes such as angles, channels, tubes and pipes). The 8 indicates the nominal beam depth as 8". The 17 indicates that the weight of the beam is 17 pounds per lineal foot of length. In an AISC steel construction manual, one can find more information and technical properties of this beam size and all other sizes offered in the United States.
What is the most accurate method to determine the appropriate beam size using a lvl beam size calculator?
The most accurate method to determine the appropriate beam size using an LVL beam size calculator is to input the specific dimensions and load requirements of the project into the calculator. This will provide a precise recommendation for the correct beam size needed for the job.
What is the formula for calculating the spot size of a laser beam?
The formula for calculating the spot size of a laser beam is given by: Spot Size 2.44 (wavelength focal length) / beam diameter
What size you beam is needed to span 40 feet if used only for roof support?
It depends on the roof load and the actual clear span. Off hand, I would guess htat you haven't given this much thought. A rule of thumb for a steel truss is one inch per foot of span or in your case 40 inches. If you want to use a steel I-beam, you can get that from a good municipal library from the steel beam institute, but you are going to need a crane to place it. Dieter in Cincinnati
