What is in the duct, its temperature, pressure and flowrate? Is this open channel flow? If so, then why is this query not in concrete under Civil Engineering? Of what is the duct made?

This is Construction Standards for duct work and is in a standard gauge; you'll have to make the conversion.

Why a duct? Why not a chicken?

What's the unsupported span?

What's being transported in the duct?

If duct is for HVA purpose depending upon size thickness of GI sheet varies. For more details refer ASHRAE or CIBSE standards.
