Update of ANSI/AISC 360-22, CSA S16:19 standards, and Taiwan sections
We have implemented the new editions of the structural design standards for North American users. The library of cross-sections was enhanced by Taiwanese profiles.
No directional strength increase for HSS (AISC)
For the welds of the rectangular hollow sections, we have implemented the requirement given by the Specification Edition 2022 of AISC. No directional strength increase is assumed in the weld resistance check.
This will lead to better safety of the design.
New codes
American users may now select the new editions of the design standards:
- CSA S16:19 (Canada, 2022)
- ANSI/AISC 360-22 (USA, 2022)
The steel material database was updated with the new release of AISC 360-22 (in patch 23.0.4).
Cross-section library update
The library of cross-sections (MPRL) was enhanced by local sections from Taiwan. These are:
- Channel parallel
- Channel tapered
- Wide flat plate
The update has been available in Connection, Member, and Checkbot since patch 22.1.1.
Available in the Expert and Enhanced editions of IDEA StatiCa Steel.
