Frame Design Using Web-Tapered Members
Update: 2026-01-28
Description
A comprehensive technical manual for the engineering and construction of web-tapered steel members, primarily aligning with AISC stability requirements. It outlines advanced analytical methods such as the Direct Analysis Method and the Effective Length Method to ensure structural integrity against buckling and flexural forces. Beyond theoretical formulas, the guide details the fabrication process where plates are welded to form optimized I-shaped sections used in metal buildings. It provides practical design examples and detailed terminology to bridge the gap between complex second-order analysis and standard industry practice. The text also includes an annotated bibliography and appendices that offer computational benchmarks for verifying structural software accuracy.
