Torsional Analysis of Structural Steel Members - Steel Design Guide Series Nine
Also Known As:
The AISC 809-97 standard provides comprehensive coverage of various aspects related to the torsional analysis of structural steel members. This standard is part of the Steel Design Guide Series, which is a collection of design guides published by the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) to assist engineers in the design of steel structures.
The standard begins by explaining the fundamentals of torsional theory, providing engineers with a solid understanding of the principles and concepts involved in analyzing torsional stresses in structural steel members. It then delves into the determination of torsional stresses, equipping engineers with the necessary tools and methodologies to calculate and evaluate these stresses.
Furthermore, the standard discusses specification provisions related to the design and analysis of structural steel members subjected to torsion. It highlights the specific requirements and guidelines provided by relevant industry codes and standards, ensuring that engineers can adhere to the recommended best practices in their designs.
Additionally, the AISC 809-97 standard addresses serviceability issues, emphasizing the importance of considering factors such as deflection, vibration, and durability when analyzing and designing torsionally loaded structural steel members.
To further aid engineers, the standard includes design examples that demonstrate the design process and the practical application of the guidelines and provisions outlined in the standard. These examples serve as valuable references for engineers to better understand and implement torsional analysis in their design projects.
