  2. Limit state design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_state_design

    The ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete uses Limit State design. The ANSI/AISC 360 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, the ANSI/AISI S-100 North American Specification for the Design of Cold Formed Steel Structural Members, and The Aluminum Association's Aluminum Design Manual contain two methods of design side ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Association_of...

    This book covers the functional design of roads and highways including such things as the layout of intersections, horizontal curves, and vertical curves. Standard Specifications for Transportation Materials and Methods of Sampling and Testing. AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. This manual is the base bridge design manual that all DOTs ...

  4. Allowable Strength Design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allowable_Strength_Design

    Allowable Stress Design philosophy was left unsupported by AISC after the 9th edition of the manual which remained an acceptable reference design standard in evolving building codes (e.g. International Building Code by the International Code Council). This presented problems since new research, engineering concepts and design philosophy were ...

  5. Steel design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_design

    Steel column members must be verified as adequate to prevent buckling after axial and moment requirements are met. There are currently two common methods of steel design: The first method is the Allowable Strength Design (ASD) method. The second is the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) method. Both use a strength, or ultimate level ...

  6. Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_3:_Design_of...

    EN 1993-5 gives design rules for steel sheet piling and bearing piles to supplement the generic rules in EN 1993-1 and is intended to be used with Eurocodes EN 1990 - Basis of design, EN 1991 - Actions on structures and EN 1997-1 for Geotechnical Design.

  7. American Institute of Steel Construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Institute_of...

    The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) is a not-for-profit technical institute and trade association for the use of structural steel in the construction industry of the United States. AISC publishes the Steel Construction Manual, an authoritative volume on steel building structure design that is referenced in all U.S. building codes.

  8. Permissible stress design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permissible_stress_design

    Wood, steel, and other materials are still frequently designed using allowable stress design, although LRFD is probably more commonly taught in the USA university system. In mechanical engineering design such as design of pressure equipment, the method uses the actual loads predicted to be experienced in practice to calculate stress and ...

  9. Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_4:_Design_of...

    EN 1994-1-2 deals with the design of composite steel and concrete structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1994-1-1 and EN 1991-1-2. This part only identifies differences from, or supplements to, normal temperature design and deals only with passive methods of fire protection.
