What size steel I beam do you need to carry a 5000 pound point load with a span of 20 feet?

To determine the appropriate size of a steel I-beam for a 5,000-pound point load over a 20-foot span, you'll need to consider factors such as the beam's material properties and safety factors. Typically, a W8x10 or W10x12 I-beam might be suitable for this load, but it's crucial to perform detailed calculations or consult a structural engineer to ensure compliance with local building codes and safety requirements. Additionally, factors such as beam support conditions and deflection limits should be considered in the final design.


What size single span beam is needed for a span of 36 feet for 2nd story floor support in my garage and I have heat tubes in the floor so I can't install a column?

You will have to have an engineer spec that beam for you. You will save yourself time and money by cutting the span with a column.

What size beam will span 16 feet for 35psf roof load?

To determine the appropriate beam size for spanning 16 feet under a 35 psf roof load, you would typically consult a span table or structural engineering guidelines. Generally, a glulam beam or a steel I-beam may be needed, with sizes varying based on factors like the beam material and specific load conditions. For a rough estimate, a glulam beam of about 3x12 or a steel I-beam around 8x10 inches could be suitable, but a structural engineer should be consulted for precise calculations and local code compliance.


What size of beam do you need to span 18 ft?

For ceiling joists, the minimum dimension per the IBC is a 2 x 12 inch, with spacing dependent on the load. Ideally, these would be screwed to blocking between the joists.

What size of beam do you need to span 14 ft?

That really depends upon the load you need to carry and the material that the beam is made of.


What size beam do you need to span 8 meters?

The size of the beam needed to span 8 meters depends on several factors, including the type of material (wood, steel, concrete), the load it will support (live load and dead load), and the beam's design (e.g., continuous, simply supported). For example, a steel I-beam may be smaller than a wooden beam for the same load. It's essential to consult structural engineering tables or a professional engineer for specific calculations and recommendations based on the project's requirements.

27 foot span what would you need for a beam?

Span/load beam questions really cannot be answered. You will need to have the plans looked at by a engineer. At the very least the lumber yard selling the beam may have an on-staff engineer to have a look at it.


What size woodlam beam or I-beam would be needed to remove a milepost in a basement and span 28 feet?

That depends on what it is carrying. . .you definitely need to consult a structural engineer for this information, and having the original set of plans to show him will help. FYI. . .28 feet is a VERY long clear-span for any type of beam.
