I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT A STEEL I-BEAM LOAD CAPACITY. I WOULD LIKE TO OPEN A
18 FT. HOLE IN A WALL FOR A ROOM ADDITION. I HAVE ONLY THE ROOF BEARING DOWN ON
IT, IT IS 12/12 PITCH APPROX. 20 FT LONG. I HAVE A 5X5X1/4 THICK I-BEAM 18.5 FT
LONG. THERE ARE APPROX. 13 2X4X10 HOLDING THIS UP NOW, WILL THIS BEAM HOLD THIS
UP? OR COULD YOU TELL ME WHAT WOULD. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU COULD GIVE ME I
WOULD LIKE TO USE STEEL NOT WOOD.
