RE: LRFD Manual of Steel Construction AISC #
The current 13th Edition of the Steel Manual replaces the 9th Edition of the ASD AND the 3rd Edition of the LRFD manual. So the 3rd Edition of LRFD Manual was the previous one from a couple of years ago.
The "number" of LRFD 3rd Edition was "3rd Edition". That's what it should say on the book itself. Not to be confused with the 3rd Edition of the ASD version, which was way back when. I've got the 5th Edition of that (it wasn't called ASD back then) and it's from 1948.
If you need a date (year) for the 3rd Edition LRFD, or for the LRFD specification contained therein, perhaps someone with a copy of one could quickly look it up?

1st Edition through the 9th Edition.
The 9th Edition was the last ASD manual
LRFD Manuals came out after the ASD 9th Edition and
were called LRFD 1st through LRFD 3rd Editions.
So AISC decided to make a combined edition and
added the 9 previous ASD editions to the 3 previous LRFD editions and got 9+3 = 12. So the next edition was named the 13th...and its combined.
The next combined LRFD-ASD edition will (I suppose) be called the 14th.

The 1st edition LRFD came out BEFORE the 9th edition ASD (1986 vs. 1989).
I have all of them, sitting here on my shelf, since the first edition in 1927...

You can download the latest code for free and it's got an ANSI/AISC number on the front cover. But the ASD specification in my 9th Edition doesn't show any number anywhere on it.

And I don't get the poorly-worded question comment. It's painfully obvious what the original poster was looking for.

Nutte, you say "And to further confuse things, the specificaton has a number, while the manual has a different number." Is that 325-01 the specification number or the manual number?
RE: LRFD Manual of Steel Construction AISC #
I'm not sure what the specification's number is.
