This is an example of what Plate 2 of the Penn-Foster structural project would look like.

Alright, I've been searching and searching on here and I feel like an idiot but maybe it's all the OT I've been working and I'm tired but I'm TOTALLY lost on sheets 4 and 5. I was hoping to be done with this structural project today or tomorrow so I could get to working on the civil since I have a promotion waiting for me at work when it's done and this whole project is driving me nuts. I'm not even gonna use any of this whole degree. I just have to appease "pencil pushers" so here I am. Ok, rant over....lol...more specifically, where do I find the dimensions for this stuff?

The student should have already drawn the channels, in sectional view, prior to sheet 4.  All you are being asked to do is provide an enlarged view since you are creating a detail sheet.  Refer to American Standard Steel Channels: Weight, Dimensions, & Properties.

 

Copy the sectional view of one of your channels (previously drawn prior to Sheet 4), paste it in your new sheet, then use the Scale command to enlarge the geometry by the necessary scale factor called for in your instructions.
