But if it's not in the on-board libray you must know or closely estimate the section properties and material strength properties.</p> <p>You do this via the Custom Member feature. Access it via the Miscellaneous dropdown at the top of screen or via the Final Member dropdown in Part 4. Once that section is unhidden (bottom of Part 3) the input cells and help tips are shown. </p> http://www.constructioncalc.com/blog/userforum/topic/working-with-non-standard-strcutural-members#post-31 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 10:22:14 +0000 Salty 31@http://www.constructioncalc.com/blog/userforum/ <p>I have an unusual existing structural I beam member, measuring 3.25" flange width x 10" deep x 1/4" web that I cannot find in AISC old or new. (Pre-fab house about 35 to 40 years old)</p> <p>Is there any way to input structural properties rather than using the canned data in your program? </p>
