Based on the width of the flange and length of 9 feet, you can work out what density you need to give 3 kip/foot at the 9 foot dimension.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>John.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 14 Dec 2021 19:15:55 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/distributed-triangular-load-help/m-p/10822959#M69203 John_Holtz 2021-12-14T19:15:55Z
