Flitch beams 4 metres long.
How much would I expect to pay for steel plate 10mm thick x approx
180mm x 4 metres ?
Thanks,
Simon.

Yellow pages, Steel Stockholders

"Metal Supermarkets" (a franchise) will be able to give you a price quickly
but are unlikely to be cheapest.

Try your local steel stockist. ISTR stock black mild steel was quite
cheap last time I bought a bit.

It is a good bit cheaper to use stock bar rather than getting plate cut
to width. There should be something available fairly close to 180 by 10.
The stuff I got appears to be 148 by 11 so was probably nominally 150 by
12.

There seems to be something missing from the table. For each width, it
quotes 6 different weights per metre - presumably for different
thicknesses - but it doesn't say what the thickness *is*.

Just looked at my records and I paid about £430 (inc VAT) for all my
steel. However at least £200 of that was nuts, bolts, plate washers,
timber connectors, and joist hangers. So the flitch plates could not
have been more than £50 each. That was for four plates averaging 4m
each, 8mm thick, 200mm high. It included the drilling and painting with
passivating paint. More details he
