The 2010 American Institute of Steel Construction standard, “Specification for Structural Steel Buildings” (ANSI/AISC 360-10), is now available for free downloading on the AISC website at
www.aisc.org/2010spec.
“The 2010 AISC Specification contains few major revisions and continues to address both LRFD and ASD methods of design,” commented Cynthia Duncan, AISC director of engineering. “However, it includes new topics and updated design provisions important to the industry today such as structural integrity, new composite member provisions, revisions to slip-critical connection design provisions, as well as a new chapter on quality control and quality assurance.”
