Any figures produced on this page are indicative estimates for early sizing and comparison only — they are not engineered design outputs.

Final member selection, loading, connection design, fire design, fabrication and compliance must be verified for your specific project by a suitably qualified structural engineer. Standards are revised; check the edition in force where the work is built.
