3 lengths of angle (6.1m)
2 lengths of box (7.6m) x3mm wall
Box, nearest (easy available)will be 50x25 x3mm wall
Assuming you bought full lengths, probably about 75 sheets all in.
If you went to a local fab shop, probably get the right amounts for what you need.
You could make it cheaper by a few quid by getting thinner wall box.
The 44x23 has to be that or smaller as it has to fit inside another length of box already on the trailer. As long as it's close I can always shim it out to fit with duck tape as it will just be bolted in.

This is the steel to make side extensions a new top tailgate and lid for my Ifor williams trailer to turn it into a box.
Just ordered it from Metal supermarket in Trafford Park, costing me just over a ton, but I've added considerably to the list:
16m of 3mm 25x25 angle
4m of 3/4" x 3/4" as thats the closest they had to the 40 x 20 stuff (two lengths side by side)
13.5m of 25 x 25 box
1.5m of 25 x 50mm box
2m x 0.5m of 1mm galvanised sheet.
Not bad really as that includes the vat anmd cutting into roughly the right sizes (easier to transport too!) Just got to go and pick it all up tomorrow.
