Steel Beam Design by ASD/LRFD Steel Construction Manual

Course No. C-2020

Credit: 2 PDH

Course Fee: $57.90 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Robert Duane Nickols, P.E., R.L.S.

Overview

This course covers the design of steel beams based on the AISC Steel Construction Manual, 13th edition. No prior knowledge of previous codes is necessary. This course would be of particular interest to Civil and Structural Engineers. The author attended a steel seminar on this new manual when it first came out and there were about 200 people in attendance. Only about 5% were using this new manual. I hope to improve that number with this course. Steel is a recyclable material.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to earn PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Types of loads and load combinations by LRFD and ASD
  • How the calculations are done by LRFD and ASD
  • What are some of the limit states like strength, buckling, shear and deflection in beam design
  • Classification of sections as compact, non-compact or slender-element
  • An illustration of a computer beam design program
