AISI Codes, Standards, and Design Guides on Cold-Formed Steel Framing
Publication: Building Integration Solutions
Abstract
To enable the increased use of cold-formed steel framing, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) in its role as an ANSI-accredited standards development organization has been actively turning state of-the-art research and industry practices into a suite of design and installation standards. In 2004, AISI released updates to its General Provisions, Header Design, Prescriptive Method and Truss Design Standards. In 2005, the AISI completed a Code of Standard Practice. A Steel Stud Brick Veneer Design Guide and a Cold-Formed Steel Framing Design Guide have also been developed to assist practicing structural engineers and architects to design cold-formed steel framing systems. This presentation will provide an introduction to these significant industry documents.
