Hello!
I'm in the process of replacing floor joists that have a supporting beams 150x150x3250 underneath them. The beam is bad and must be replaced.
Does anyone know the strength of the beams or if it would work to replace with HEA140, alternatively an appropriate dimension of glulam beam?

Hi!
I'm in the process of replacing floor joists that have a supporting fyrskäring 150x150x3250 underneath them. The fyrskäring is bad and needs to be replaced.
Does anyone know the strength of fyrskäring or if it would work to replace it with HEA140, alternatively a suitable dimension of glulam?
Why not just a new 6"x6"?

HEA 140 can withstand more load than a fyrskäring150*150, does not rot, and if it is galvanized, it also doesn't rust, but that's not necessary.
It's often available for purchase second-hand at a scrap yard.
Of course, you shouldn't have such high humidity in a foundation for the wood to rot.
If that is what the fyrskäring did.
