of Steel Construction (AISC) Manual of Steel Construction, 9th edition. At the undergraduate level, Chapters 11 through 13 should be used on a limited basis, leaving the student more time to concentrate on composite construction and built-up girders. species groups for connector design have been established (Table 14.2.1-3).
In the second semester, Chapters 9 through 13 should be covered. Thus, the use of the AISC Steel Construction Manual is a must in teaching this course. In addition to the class lectures, the instructor should require the student to submit a term project that includes the complete structural design of a multi-story building using standard design procedures as specified by AISC Specifications. With the new federal requirements vis a vis wind and earthquake hazards, it is beneficial to the student to have some underĀ standing of the underlying concepts in this field. Heavy emphasis should be placed on Chapters 1 through 5, giving the student a brief exposure to the consideration of wind and earthquakes in the design of buildings. The source of equations or tabulated values taken from the AISC Specification or AISC Manual is noted along the right-hand edge of the page. For a two-semester curriculum, Chapters 1 through 8 can be used during the first semester. The 2010 AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings is referred to as the AISC Specification and the 14th Edition AISC Steel Construction Manual, is referred to as the AISC Manual. Design of Steel Structures can be used for one or two semesters of three hours each on the undergraduate level. SI-equivalent designations are given in Table 17-10. Design dimensions, detailing dimensions, and axial, flexural and torsional properties are given in Table 1-14. References to ASTM standards shall be the edition as adopted by the Florida. It replaces the 13th Edition Manual originally published in 2005.
Many of the examples presented in this book are drawn from the field of design of structures. RE: AISC SCM 14th ed., Table 10-1, All Bolted Double Angle Connections 271828 (Structural) 4 Sep 18 15:21 Note that this table changed in the 15th edition and will almost certainly change again in the 16th. This Manual is the 14th Edition of the AISC Steel Construction Manual, which was first published in 1927. Although it has been developed from lecture notes given in structural steel design, it can be useful to practicing engineers. CB18x14/26 is an example of an asymmetric FreeSpan beam designation, where: CB Castellated Beam (LB for Cellular Beam) 18 Nominal Depth in inches (1.5 times the nominal wide flange depth) 14 Nominal weight per foot of top beam half (plf) 26 Nominal weight per foot of bottom beam half (plf) CONCRETE SLAB. This book is intended for classroom teaching in architectural and civil engineering at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
