First Introduction of HSS members
First Introduction of HSS members
(OP)
I'm looking for information on when HSS section members first began to be produced and used. The only information I have is that they first appear in the AISC design manual in LRFD 2nd Edition, but presumably they must have been in use prior to that. Can anyone shed some light?

A lot of research took place during the 1970's with regard to connection behavior and static strength.
In 1981, a new set of ultimate strength formulae for HSS welded truss connections was published in Canada by Packer and Haleem.
