This up-to-the-minute reference comprehensively covers the behavior and design of cold-formed steel structures, connections, and systems-describing the latest edition of, and amendment to, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members published in July 2000, which governs the design of all cold-formed steel structures, including roof, wall, and rack systems, and cold-formed steel residential construction in the USA.

Offers worked examples which can be programmed using MATHCADTM or EXCELTM as well as useful references in every chapter!

Cold-Formed Steel Structures to the AISI Specification details

  • contemporary applications for steel storage racks and metal construction of roof and wall systems
  • buckling modes of thin-walled members
  • effective width equations for stiffened or unstiffened flanges, partially stiffened elements, and webs with holes
  • state-of-the-art methods for bracing channel and zee sections against torsional and lateral deformations
  • and more!

With over 700 references, equations, tables, drawings, and illustrations, Cold-Formed Steel Structures to the AISI Specification is an authoritative reference for civil, structural, project, design, materials, and industrial engineers; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
