paper calmenson & co. joist help
does anybody know where i can get a load table for a paper calmenson joist. the joist tag reads (b6022 18 28-8) it spans 28' i need to know the load it can support. thank you
your best bet is to try to identify the joist size and type. then you may get a copy of the steel joist institute manual "75 year manual 1928 - 2003"(i have the previous edition and it is a great source in my library). the label tells me (my humble interpretation) that the joist may be 18 inches deep and 28 feet 8 inches long. i can not decode the other figures. they may be a mark number for the field crew to place them but not sure or may be the joist designation.
you may also contact them at (843) 626-1995 or their fax number is (843) 626-5565 and their web site is
