old steel section properties
does anyone know where i find section properties for w6 x 15.5.  the steel section is no longer in the modern aisc manuals.
there is a faq in this forum regarding that kind of information.   
several 6" by 15.5 are listed in the aisc iron and steel beams 1873 to 1952.  
you may wish to check out slideruleera.net for such out of print texts and references.
