3x3 or 4x4 square tubing bending strength
Thank you to everyone. This project is only temporary. I'm building a new floating dock on top of my old dock. I just need to raise and slide it ever so gently into the water. You know what they say. It only costs a little bit more to do it yourself.- websocket

3x3 or 4x4 square tubing bending strength
Way over my head. Another option is to nail three 2x6x10 yellow pine boards together. I'm hoping this will support lifting 1500 lbs.- websocket

3x3 or 4x4 square tubing bending strength
I need to erect a hoist beam with a 10' span using square tubing. Which is stronger, 3"x3" 1/4" wall or 4"x4" x 3/16"? Also, how much weight could I lift at the center?- websocket
