This is the 15th major update of the Manual, which was first published in 1927. “The enhancements in the 15th Edition Manual should be a great aid in helping structural engineers in adapting to these changes when designing with steel.” “AISC is aware of the difficulty experienced by the structural engineering profession when dealing with the frequent changes in building codes and material standards,” said Larry Kruth, PE, AISC’s vice president of engineering and research. This new edition of the Manual includes the 2016 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, with improvements and revisions in the provisions for slender-element compression members, shear strength and double angle and WT flexural strength, as well as the 2016 Code of Standard Practice, which clarifies the use of models, and new and enhanced Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel (AESS) standards. (Chicago, IL) – The American Institute of Steel Construction’s (AISC) 15th Edition Steel Construction Manual is now available.
