ANALYSIS OF WELDED PLATE GIRDERS BY THE AISC SPECIFICATION

File name is GRB. Program analyzes plate girders fabricated by welding together a web plate and a flange plate for compliance with the AISC Specification for Structural Steel for Buildings when subjected to a specified combination of shear and moment. Messages are printed to indicate dimensional incompatibilities or specification violations. Moments of inertia, stresses, and other information are printed to aid the designer in evaluating the section or making another selection. Data input is free-form. Program is on approximately 140 cards. Program was developed primarily for use in teaching structural steel design.
