AISC Basic Design Values (Timed & Monitored)
- Course Number: S1013T
- Credits: 4 hours
- Instructor: Helen Chen, Ph.D., PE
- Price: $40
Course Outline
American Institute of Steel Construction published an easy-to-use Basic Design Values Card for engineers to quickly find useful equations in design. These equations are derived or simplified from those in the ANSI/AISC 360-16, Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, 2016 Edition. This course is to provide engineers with the background information of the equations provided in the Card so that engineers can have a better understanding and hence fully and effectively utilize the Card in their design.
At the end of this course, there will be a multiple-choice, open-book quiz designed to enhance your understanding of the course material.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, the student will:
- Understand the equations provided in the AISC Basic Design Value Card;
- Understand the basic design background information of ANSI/AISC 360-16; and
- How to use the Card in design;
