seem to remember reading min thickness for G10 was 2X the fastener diameter for course thread, but no idea how authoritative the info was. still, this is one of those areas id way over do just because the consequences of a failure are pretty disgusting.

I'm going to go and have a look for G10. It sounds like it has the qualities that I need; especially that it can hold lag bolts.
