I Beam Load Capacity Chart

I Beam Load Capacity Chart - Assuming beam is carrying 50% of this load (and the exterior wall carrying the other 50%); The room is 15' x 19' and has a triple 2x10 beam running the full length of the room (19' span) and currently has a screw jack supporting the beam in the middle. The rule of thumb would be 500lbs. I’m trying to see how far a 6”x16” with 1/2” thick metal can span unsupported, carrying the center of a 2x8 ceiling, two runs of joists 14’ long, with drywall and roofing material. 4235/11 = 385 plf (pounds per lineal foot). Say 12 diameter sonotubes sunk 2 feet in the ground and 1 foot above the ground to support a wooden deck.

Posts are sitting on 2x2 footings that are in the slab. On 2 projects i've done with just floor load bearing and a span of 20' a 8 i beam was more then enough spec'd by an engineer. Ideally, i would prefer a chart that is up to date and used by code enforcement, as opposed to one just pulled off some random website. Say 12 diameter sonotubes sunk 2 feet in the ground and 1 foot above the ground to support a wooden deck. The steel supply you get the beams from usually will calculate the loads and sizes for you at no charge.

The rule of thumb would be 500lbs. 4235/11 = 385 plf (pounds per lineal foot). Although varying by specie is very true and something to be considered when you get outside the norm of standard framing material. I’m trying to see how far a 6”x16” with 1/2” thick metal can span unsupported, carrying the center of a 2x8 ceiling, two runs of joists 14’ long, with drywall and roofing material.

So if you have a 12' roof with a 1' overhang at the end your beam load factor would be the horizontal top part of the chart 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,.

I’m trying to see how far a 6”x16” with 1/2” thick metal can span unsupported, carrying the center of a 2x8 ceiling, two runs of joists 14’ long, with drywall and roofing material. Then look at the vertical left side of the chart. Beam is (nearly) 11ft long.

Using Standard Load Estimates From Lvl Span Tables:

I had seen similar sites to the joist calculator pages, but nothing on steel so that will be very helpful, although i'm wondering if i amreading it correctly where it seems to say that a 4 1/8 x 4 beam spanning 12' could handle 267 lbs. Where the beam is a 40 footer! 40 psf live, 15 psf dead = 55 lb/sqft. Per square inch of material = end grain carrying capacity.

Thanks Alot For That Last Link To The Steel Beam 'Allowable Load' Chart.

Ideally, i would prefer a chart that is up to date and used by code enforcement, as opposed to one just pulled off some random website. Total weight of supported floor: 4235/11 = 385 plf (pounds per lineal foot). 55 x 154 = 8470 lbs.

I Want The Middle Post Removed So That The Span Will Be The Full 14 Feet Supported By The Two Posts At Each End.

The steel supply you get the beams from usually will calculate the loads and sizes for you at no charge. The rule of thumb would be 500lbs. It seems that only two 4x4 posts on the basement side are hardly enough to support this beam. The room is 15' x 19' and has a triple 2x10 beam running the full length of the room (19' span) and currently has a screw jack supporting the beam in the middle.
