The ASI specifications provide guidance for designing and building coal formed steel structures without wave holes. The primary document is the North American Specification for Coal Formed Steel Structures. It focuses on factors like material selection, load combinations, allowable stresses, and different types of structural failures. Visual representation is important in the design process. Design Codes for Coal Formed Steel Structures, especially those pertaining to ASI specifications provide guidance for the design and construction of CFS Coal Formed Members without Wave Holes. The primary documents governing this is the North American Specification for the Design of Coal Formed Steel Structures Members published by the American Iron and Steel Institute. In collaboration with the Canadian Steel Building Institute, the latest edition is referred to as ASI without wave holes. The design considerations primarily focuses on factors such as members, selection material properties, load combinations, allowable stresses, deflection and various types of structural failures including flexure, shear and torsional buckling. Key points in the design process includes picture representation. Thank you.
