AISC ASD and LRFD
• AISC = American Institute of Steel
Construction

• ASD = Allowable Stress Design


AISC Ninth Edition

• LRFD = Load and Resistance Factor Design


AISC Third Edition

2
AISC Steel Design Manuals
• 1963 AISC ASD 6th Edition
• 1969 AISC ASD 7th Edition
• 1978 AISC ASD 8th Edition
• 1989 AISC ASD 9th Edition

• 1986 AISC LRFD 1st Edition


• 1993 AISC LRFD 2nd Edition
• 1999 AISC LRFD 3rd Edition

ASD and LRFD
Major Differences
• Load Combinations and load factors
• ASD results are based on the stresses and
LRFD results are based on the forces and
moments capacity
• Static analysis is acceptable for ASD but
nonlinear geometric analysis is required for
LRFD
• Beams and flexural members
• Cb computation
4
ASD Load Combinations
• 1.0D + 1.0L
• 0.75D + 0.75L + 0.75W
• 0.75D + 0.75L + 0.75E

D = dead load
L = live load
W = wind load
E = earthquake load
5
ASD Load Combinations
Or you can use following load combinations with the
parameter ALSTRINC to account for the 1/3 allowable
increase for the wind and seismic load

1. 1.0D + 1.0L
2. 1.0D + 1.0L + 1.0W
3. 1.0D + 1.0L + 1.0E

• PARAMETER $ ALSTRINC based on the % increase


• ALSTRINC 33.333 LOADINGS 2 3
6
LRFD Load Combinations
• 1.4D
• 1.2D + 1.6L
• 1.2D + 1.6W + 0.5L
• 1.2D ± 1.0E + 0.5L
• 0.9D ± (1.6W or 1.0E)
D = dead load
L = live load
W = wind load
E = earthquake load

7
Deflection Load Combinations
for ASD and LRFD
• 1.0D + 1.0L
• 1.0D + 1.0L + 1.0W
• 1.0D + 1.0L + 1.0E

D = dead load
L = live load
W = wind load
E = earthquake load

8
Forces and Stresses
• ASD = actual stress values are
compared to the AISC
allowable stress values

• LRFD = actual forces and moments


are compared to the AISC
limiting forces and moments
capacity
9
ASTM Steel Grade
