Hello,

If anyone please has "Steel Structures Design and Behavior" book by Salmon & Johnson, 2nd edition from January 1980. I believe this book fully used ASD approach back then.

  ASTM D1587: Standard Practice for Thin-Walled Tube Sampling of Soils for Geotechn
Posted by: ir_71 - 04-18-2011, 04:28 PM - Forum: ASTM - Replies (1)

ASTM D1587 – 08 Standard Practice for Thin-Walled Tube Sampling of Soils for Geotechnical Purposes

Author: ASTM Committee D18 | Size: 0.07 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: ASTM | Year: 2008 | pages: 4

[Image: 57182245433286671941.jpg]

1.1 This practice covers a procedure for using a thin-walled metal tube to recover relatively intact soil samples suitable for laboratory tests of engineering properties, such as strength,
compressibility, permeability, and density. Thin-walled tubes used in piston, plug, or rotary-type samplers should comply with Section 6.3 of this practice which describes the thinwalled
tubes.
NOTE 1—This practice does not apply to liners used within the samplers.
1.2 This Practice is limited to soils that can be penetrated by the thin-walled tube. This sampling method is not recommended for sampling soils containing gravel or larger size soil
particles cemented or very hard soils. Other soil samplers may be used for sampling these soil types. Such samplers include driven split barrel samplers and soil coring devices (D1586, D3550, and D6151). For information on appropriate use of other soil samplers refer to D6169.
1.3 This practice is often used in conjunction with fluid rotary drilling (D1452, D5783) or hollow-stem augers (D6151). Subsurface geotechnical explorations should be reported in accordance with practice (D5434). This practice discusses some aspects of sample preservation after the sampling event. For information on preservation and transportation
process of soil samples, consult Practice D4220. This practice does not address environmental sampling; consult D6169 and D6232 for information on sampling for environmental investigations.
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.4.1 The tubing tolerances presented in Table 1 are from sources available in North America. Use of metric equivalent is acceptable as long as thickness and proportions are similar to those required in this standard.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate
safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.6 This practice offers a set of instructions for performing one or more specific operations. This document cannot replace education or experience and should be used in conjunction with professional judgment. Not all aspects of this practice may be applicable in all circumstances. This ASTM standard is not intended to represent or replace the standard of care by which the adequacy of a given professional service must be judged, nor should this document be applied without consideration of a project’s many unique aspects. The word “Standard” in the title of this document means only that the document

  SCI P118: Design of Stub Girders
Posted by: ir_71 - 04-18-2011, 05:38 AM - Forum: Steel - Replies (1)

SCI P118: Design of Stub Girders

Author: R M Lawson, R E McConnel | Size: 3.4 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: SCI | Year: 1993 | pages: 63 | ISBN: 1870004809

[Image: 45234437208586135086.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

The design of ‘stub girders’ is presented in a form consistent with BS 5950: Part 3. The basis of design is simplified by considering that the steel bottom chord resists tension (arising from bending action), vertical shear, and local (Vierendeel) moments across the opening. The design method is compared with the results of three full-scale stub girder tests and is shown to be conservative but reasonably accurate. Model factors for these tests were in the range of 1.0 to 1.2 when using measured material strengths, increasing to 1.2 to 1.w4 hen using design strengths.
One important observation was that the Code requirements for transverse reinforcement are unduly conservative for this form of construction. A design example is included, which covers the important aspects of the design.

  SCI P129: Building Design using Cold Formed Steel Sections: Fire Protection
Posted by: ir_71 - 04-18-2011, 05:23 AM - Forum: Journals, Papers and Presentations - Replies (2)

SCI P129: Building Design using Cold Formed Steel Sections: Fire Protection

Size: 2 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: SCI | Year: 1993 | pages: 39 | ISBN: 1870004973

[Image: 79273584677383891843.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

The fire resistance of cold formed sections is affected by the strength retention of the steel at elevated temperatures and the rate of heating of the thin steel section. Fire protection to cold formed sections may be of three forins depending on the materials used:
1. Planar protection as in floors and walls
2. Box protection
3. Profile protection.
Guidance is presented for the fire resistance of protected sections in floors or walls acting as compartment boundaries, i.e. planar protection. In this case, heat is applied from one side only and the floors or walls must satisfy the necessary insulation criterion. This guidance is based on manufacturers’ data for gypsum plasterboard and related materials.
The thickness of fire protection for conventional beams and columns is determined by using the method given in BS 5950: Part 8 for extending the existing data for hot rolled sections to cover the use of cold formed sections. Design tables are presented for typical materials and section sizes. A design summary is included at the rear of the publication which identifies the main fire protection requirements for cold formed steel sections in floors, walls and as individual beams and columns.
