Incorrect size of saddle support
Thread Content
When I was drawing the VI600-SF saddle support according to Figure 4 and Table 6 on page 12 of the 2007 edition, I found that the angle of the web wrap was less than 120°. I’m not sure if this is an error in my drawing; I would appreciate some guidance from those with more experience.
This shouldn’t be a drawing error on the part of an individual; I’ve encountered similar situations before – I can’t remember which type of support it was – and the angle at which the web meets the other elements is also less than 120°. I think the standards may specify several models of saddle web flange angles that are roughly around 120°.
