FAQ: How are ASD & LRFD related?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 11
Limit States define Nominal Strength:
(Mn, Pn , Vn , Rn ) independent of Design Approach
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 12
To get Available Strength,
• In ASD divide Nominal Strength by
• In LRFD multiply Nominal Strength by
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 13
Nominal Strength – Strength of a structure or component without the resistance factor () or safety factor () applied.
Available Strength – Design Strength (LRFD) or Allowable
Strength (ASD), with the or factor applied.
Design Strength (LRFD) – Resistance Factor multiplied by the Nominal Strength, Rn
Allowable Strength (ASD) – Nominal Strength divided by the safety factor, Rn/
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 14
For ASD, design shall be performed in accordance with:
Ra Rn/
where
Ra = required strength (ASD)
Rn = nominal strength specified in Chapters C through K
= safety factor specified in Chapters C through K
Rn/ = allowable strength (available strength)
Design Basis: ASD
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 15
For LRFD, design shall be performed in accordance with:
Ru Rn where
Ru = required strength (LRFD)
Rn = nominal strength specified in Chapters C through K
= resistance factor specified in Chapters C through K
Rn = design strength (available strength)
Design Basis: LRFD
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 16
FAQ: How is the ASD/LRFD correlation
equilibrated?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 17
Limit States are equilibrated at a
Live Load / Dead Load of 3 / 1
Load Combinations
(ASD): Total Load = Dead + Live
Total Load = 1 + 3 = 4
(LRFD): Total Load = 1.2Dead + 1.6Live
Total Load = 1.2(1) + 1.6(3) = 6
Load Ratio: LRFD / ASD = 6 / 4 = 1.5
Direct Relationship!
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 18
=1.5 / or = 1.5 /
This relationship is carried throughout the Specification Limit States.

FAQ: Do HSS have to be designed for 0.93t?
Where did the factor come from?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 28
Yes.
It comes from HSS production
tolerances.
ASTM A500
11.2 Wall Thickness- The minimum wall thickness at any point of measurement
On the tubing shall be not more than 10% less than the specified wall thickness.
The maximum wall thickness, excluding the weld seam of welded tubing, shall be
Not more than 10% greater than the specified wall thickness. For square and
Rectangular tubing, the wall thickness requirements shall apply only to the
Centers of the flats.

FAQ: For single-plate connections, why
is the fillet weld size required to
be 5/8 of the plate thickness.
The plate thickness is also limited
to a maximum of 1/16” more or
less than the bolt size?

Cost of welding is essentially
proportional to the volume of weld
metal.
½” Fillet vs. ¼” Fillet Weld
Doubles capacity but quadruples
weld volume.
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 54
Larger Welds = More Distortion
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 55
FAQ: Why are fillet welds preferred over
groove welds?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 56
Generally, fillet welds and groove
welds require approximately the
same amount of weld material.
However, fillet welds typically do
not require beveling and similar
base metal preparation.

AISC FAQ Steel Talks 57
FAQ: When a weld is placed between
plates forming an angle that is less than
60 degrees, why is a Z-loss factor applied
to determine the effective throat?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 58
The Z-Loss dimension accounts for the probability of incomplete fusion at the
root of the joint (on the acute side of the connection) due to restricted welding
access.
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 59
FAQ: When an extended end-plate moment connection is specified as slip-critical, must the slip resistance of the
bolts at the tension flange be reduced for the tension present?

remains after threading?

For A325, Fu = 120 ksi
For A490, Fu = 150 ksi

AISC FAQ Steel Talks 66
From Table 2-6
• A325 Bolts Fu = 120 ksi
– Fnt = 0.75 x 120 ksi = 90 ksi
• A490 Bolts Fu = 150 ksi
– Fnt = 0.75 x 150 ksi = 113 ksi

FAQ: Bolt Bearing Deformation

When deformation is a
design consideration
Designs driven by blast or progressive collapse loading could take
advantage of higher capacity.
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 78
FAQ: As indicated in the 2010 AISC
Specification Table J3.2, when the pattern of
fasteners in a bolted joint exceeds 38 in. in
length, tabulated design strengths should be
reduced to 83.3% of the tabulated values. Why?
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 79
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 80
End bolts will continue to
deform until next row of
bolts slip into bearing.
End bolts will slip
into bearing first.
This behavior continues as
load increases. End bolts
continue to deform.
AISC FAQ Steel Talks 81
If connection is long enough,
end bolts will deform enough
that they will fail. This results
in the sequential failure of
fasteners…”unbuttoning.”
