Stability Design of Structural Steel

Prior to its 13th (2005) edition, the words “structural analysis” do not appear in any provisions of the American Institute of Steel Construction’s Specification for Structural Steel Buildings.  Given the developments in computational hardware and structural analysis software, the specification is now significantly changed to permit practicing engineers to take full advantage of such capabilities.  This course consists of 8 – 1.5 hour sessions, and will focus on reviewing and demonstrating the benefits of employing modern structural analysis methods in the stability design of steel structures.
