Thanks. Those are what I am looking for. As for breaching copyright
law, I don't think one or two pages would constitute that. I know that
if I go to the library I can photocopy parts of texts provided they are
for my own use. I have thought about buying the ASCE specs and the IBC
also but I would only use them once every 2 years. The Canadian codes
are usually well written but, in the case of the Aluminum standard, it
is a piece of kludge. I would appreciate it if you can send those
combinations without violating your copyright laws. TIA
