I think I am safe here, just wanted to see if anyone knows the figures.

TIA

Steve,

I don't have the figures on CorTen. But consider ordinary merchant stock
steel. It runs at least 45Kpsi.

Besides, why would you want to drill it to lift it? An 84x44 piece of
corrugated CorTen (what -- 22 gauge?) couldn't weigh more than a couple
of hundred pounds. Simple clamps would do.

It has to fit flat for attachment. If I had two little plate clamps, maybe.
But the larger ones hit the wall before the sheet does. This needs to be
hoisted in order to fasten it, and the hoisting device can be no more than
1.25" or so thick.
