Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

(OP)
I wanna to know, except AISC 360-05, what's code or SPEC is necessary for the design of connection of steel structure/building?

Thanks for you help!

IN TODAY'S ENGINEERING PRACTICE, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A"NORMAL"OR "STANDARD" STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS.

RE: Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

Well there is AISI S100 if you are dealing with light-gauge steel

AISC 341-05 for seismic provisions
RCSC Spec for structural joints using high strength bolts
AWS D1.1 Structural welding code - Steel


I am not sure what you are asking for, are you looking for information for connection design?

RE: Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

Ash060 basically has it right.  Though there is also AISC 358-05.... And, a couple of revisions or addendums to them. Essentially, this is just a spec of "pre-qualified" connections per AISC 341.   

RE: Help me with the Code/SPEC of connection design?

Capacity needs to exceed demand.

Your project contract should tell you what codes apply.
