Three Aluminum Design Codes: Failure by Yield or Rupture
Publication: Structures 2001: A Structural Engineering Odyssey
Abstract
In this paper the design procedures for tension, compression, shear, and bending governed by yielding or rupture, with no instability, as presented in three design codes for aluminum structures, are compared. Other papers in this series deal with "Material Properties and Connections" and "Buckling". The codes reviewed are. CSA: Canadian Standards Association, S157 "Strength Design in Aluminum", EC9: Eurocode 9 "Design of Aluminum Alloy Structures- Part 1-1: General Rules and Rules for Building", ENV 1999-1-1, and SAS: Aluminum Association "Specification for Aluminum Structures: Load and Resistance Factor Design".
