2. Maximum thickness of galvanized coating is 65um
Shipment
1. Small diameter in bundle fasten by steel strip
2. Large diameter in bulk
3. Or pack and transport as required
What is the load capacity of the W6x9 beam?
At the allowable bending limit (stress) of the beam, it can carry a 2,900-pound point live load at midspan and deflect approximately 0.75 in. Assume the steel beam is 36 ksi W6x9.
