SEAoNY October Seminar
Harnessing The Power of AISC Design Guides
October 23, 2018
6:15PM - 8:00PM
Center for Architecture, 536 LaGuardia Place
Presented By: Margaret A. Matthew, P.E.
Structural Engineers are called upon to tackle tough analytical problems every day, and AISC has many resources available to make that job a little bit easier. This one‐hour presentation will familiarize you with the great technical resources available in the AISC Design Guide Series. The session will include a general review of the AISC Design Guide Series, including the newest Guides on Rehabilitation and Retrofit (DG 15, 2nd Ed.), Welding (DG 21, 2nd Ed.), Curved Member Design (DG 33), and Steel‐Framed Stairway Design (DG 34). We will also review the most popular Design Guides in the series, paying particular attention to the Design Guides that cover Floor Vibrations (DG 11), Base Plate and Anchor Rod Design (DG 1), and Industrial Building Design (DG 7).
