How do you determine what size steel to use when making something from scratch?
Are there some relativly simple calcs? or even software or excel sheet?
ie I want to span x distance and the load will be y so i need steel angle that is a x b x c?
I want to make a longer than normal bunk bed with a table at the end (so the legs are up against the wallls.
So i know i need to span 3.3m but what size angle should i get.
