CSA S16-09: Design of steel structures

Canadian Standards Association, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, 2009, 175 pages, ISBN: 978-1-55491-224-7This is the seventh edition of CSA S16, Design of steel structures. It supersedes the previous limit states editions published in 2001, 1994, 1989, 1984, 1 978, and 1974. These seven limit states design editions were preceded by seven working stress design editions published in 1969, 1965, 1961, 1954, 1940, 1930, and 1924. The 1969 working stress design edition was withdrawn in 1984, from which point the design of steel structures in Canada has been carried out using limit states design principles.This Standard is appropriate for the design of a broad range of structures. It sets out minimum requirements and is expected to be used only by engineers competent in the design of steel structures.
