New Design Standards for Cold-Formed Steel Framing
Abstract
New design standards, being developed by the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Committee on Framing Standards, that recognize the beneficial effects of system synergy, were presented. the standards were designed to significantly improve the efficiency of cold-formed steel framing designs. the General Provisions Standard established the foundation for such design and installation topics as: materials, corrosion protection, product identification, member and connection design, and installation of utility services. the Header Design Standard established both design and installation requirements for moment capacity, shear capacity, web crippling capacity and combinations of bending and shear and bending and web crippling.
