Rib Spacing?

Hi All,
I don’t have a set of plans and I would like to know the spacing between ribs. Also, can someone confirm that the rib material is .025" 6061-T6? Thanks.

My rivet lines are 10" apart, except for the inboard 4 ribs which are 5".

What are you doing?

Thanks for the info, Brian.
I’m comparing wing structures of a few different planes I’m interested in building
