Effective cross-section
The presence of profiled steel sheeting in a slab is normally ignored when the slab is considered as part of […]
Effect of Cold Work on Tensile Properties
In the fabrication of structures, steel plates and shapes are often formed at room temperatures into desired shapes. These cold-forming
Effect of Elevated Temperatures on Tensile Properties
The behavior of structural steels subjected to short-time loadings at elevated temperatures is usually determined from short-time tension tests. In

Edge Distance of Fasteners
Minimum distances from centers of fasteners to any edges are given in Tables 5.7 and 5.8. The AISC specifications for
Earthquake Loads
The seismic loads on the structure during an earthquake result from inertia forces which were created by ground accelerations. The magnitude
Eccentrically Loaded Welded Connections
Welds are of two general types, fillet (Fig. 7.43a) and groove (Fig. 7.43b), with allowable stresses dependent on grade of weld
Economy in Column Design
Actual costs of reinforced-concrete columns in place per linear foot per kip of loadcarrying capacity vary widely. The following recommendations based
