LRFDBeam Load TablesHSSE lectric Resistance Welding (ERW) ProcessIn the tube mill, flat steel strip (1) is formed continuously around itslongitudinal axis to produce a round tube. This is done by moving thestrip through a progressive set of rolls (2-6). The strip edges (7) areheated by either high frequency induction or contact welding and thenforged together by weld rolls to create a continuous longitudinal weldwithout the addition of filler metal. The weld seam (8) is then cooledand processed through a set of sizing/shaping rolls which cold-form itinto a round (9), square (10) or rectangular (11) Weld-Square (ERW) ProcessIn the weld mill, driven forming dies progressively shape the flat strip(1) by forming the top two corners (2) of the square or rectangular tubein the initial forming station. Subsequent stations form the bottom twocorners (3) of the shape.

across the row at the span equal to 22 feet and note that the maximum factored uniform load is equal to 167 kips. Note that this includes the weight of the HSS beam. Example 2 Select the lightest 8-inch deep, simply supported ERW HSS beam of Fy = 50 ksi (ASTM A500 Gr. C) to …
