Light gage design
Light gage design
(OP)
Normally light gage steel catalogue has all the design loads like steel joists. Can we verfiy those number by AISC manula 13th edition or there is separate design guide for this

criteria for deisgn in AISC 13th edition, we can design light gage too.
RE: Light gage design
Agree with JAE, AISI has a totally different design guide that should be used for the design of light gage steel members. AISC Manual should not be used.
Design of light gage members, from scratch, can be quite a difficult thing if you are not familiar with the AISI guide and its methodoligy (?). The Steel Stud Manufacturers Association (SSMA) publishes a Product Technical Guide which can be downloaded from their website. This guide is quite useful when designing in light gage steel members.

AISC does not apply to lightgage, no matter how you twist it.
RE: Light gage design
We cannot apply AISC design on Reinforced concrete that I follow.
AISC also checks compact, non-compact and slender section and assigns strength accordingly.
Obviously in Light gage ( all sections slender) , local buckling due to thin sections will be controlling most of the time. Now AISC has equations for various slender ratios and corresponding reduction in capacities.
What is here which AISC is missing? Which makes it unusable for light gage? That’s all I want to know please?
