RE: Steel Joist Seat Height

I've had Vulcraft engineers tell me they wanted the low end 5.5" tall for
sloped joists I am laying out now. Different than what is shown in the
catalog. They will give you what you spec. Call and ask what they can
provide.

Subject: Steel Joist Seat Height

I need a sanity check on a 2:12 sloped LH joist seat height. As I'm not
really a joist guy I appreciate the help. The Vulcraft catalog has the high
end joist seat depth at 7". But the low end seat depth is " 6" min.* ".

I'm assuming that the the seats depths will be the same at both ends, in this
case 7". Is this correct?

Paul.
