I need to replace a bridge on my property span is 10 feet tractor is b7800 with loader to aprox. 2800lbs and capacity for another 800 in bucket so say 3800 lbs load with operator
is an 8" X 8" hemlock beam going to do the job.
I found a formula that had this constant for hemlock set at 76
W X H squared X constant
________________________
span
so 8 X 64 X 76 divided by ten gives me 3891.2 Lbs
does this make sense.
thanks
