Interesting..


Perhaps you could do a dedicated post on ISS, there is little information regarding scientific tests of the deflection of steel piers.

Im presuming the program you used is a simulator, you didnt actually go out and get some massive pieces of steel and weld a 50kg weight on the end and get a deflector meter (i know wrong name) and measure it.

If that is correct and if its reasonably easy, could you do a simulation for me? my tube size is 500x165x4.9mm. 50kg is accurate.

In the meantime I will send direct an email bout the SHS cause they do have that in stock.

Thanks heaps
