Good evening,
So I have a project I¡¯m trying to complete, and Im nearing the end and am looking for opinions.
I need to make a 90 degree joint, approx 3¡±x3¡± timbers of whatever I please.
I intend the ¡°leg¡± to extend 30-36¡±, and anticipate 250-350 lbs static load at the 16¡± point-ish.
I was thinking of 1/2¡± plies Bridled, and would consider going to 1/4¡± to get more glueing surface of it seems like it is needed.
Pic of assembly and close up of proposed joint.
Should I quit being silly and just sandwich a 1/4¡± steel L in there running 12¡± each way?
Why ¡°felder grade¡±, well this is the felder group, y¡¯all seem really bright, and I can¡¯t lead with ¡°so I¡¯m finishing up the elevator in my shop¡±...
Thanks for the advice,
Brian
