Steel Code ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10 (USA)

This section contains information on parameters and calculations according to ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10 codes.

Note: Although the ANSI/AISC 360-10 version of the code officially replaces the ANSI/AISC 360-05 code, this latter remains available in the program.

Topics in this section

Member Type Parameters (ANSI/AISC 360-05)
Member Definition - Parameters (ANSI/AISC 360-10)
Use this dialog to define the code parameters of a member type according to the ANSI/AISC 360-10 code.
Configuration (ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10)
Use this dialog to define the parameters to apply during the verification of a steel member according to the ANSI/AISC 360-05 or ANSI/AISC 360-10 code.
Additional Parameters (ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10)
Use this dialog to define additional code parameters of a steel member.
Serviceability - Displacement limiting values (ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10)
Use this dialog to define additional parameters determining the limit displacement values.
Location of Transverse Stiffeners (ANSI/AISC 360-05 and ANSI/AISC 360-10)
Use this dialog to determine the spacing of transverse stiffeners along the beam length, with real coordinates or in relation to the beam length.
Lateral Buckling Length Coefficient (American Codes)
Use this dialog to determine the appropriate distances between member sections protected against torsion.
Internal bracings
Use this option to define bracings and lateral supports for all analyzed stability cases (buckling, lateral buckling, and torsion).
Verification/calculations of joists
Robot allows verification and design of JOISTS (American prefabricated trusses).
