PART III. ALLOWABLE STRESS DESIGN (ASD) ALTERNATIVE

67

As an alternative to the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) provisions for structural steel design in Part I, the use of the Allowable Stress Design (ASD) provisions in this Part is permitted. All requirements of Part I shall be met except as modified or supplemented in this Part. When using this Part, the terms “LRFD Specification”, “FR” and “PR” in Part I shall be taken as “ASD Specification”, “Type 1”, and “Type 3”, respectively. 1.

SCOPE

Substitute the following for PART I Section 1 in its entirety: These Provisions are intended for the design and construction of structural steel members and connections in the Seismic Force Resisting Systems in buildings for which the design forces resulting from earthquake motions have been determined on the basis of various levels of energy dissipation in the inelastic range of response. These Provisions shall apply to buildings that are classified in the Applicable Building Code as Seismic Design Category D (or equivalent) and higher or when required by the Engineer of Record. These Provisions shall be applied in conjunction with the AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings—Allowable Stress Design and Plastic Design including Supplement No. 1, hereinafter referred to as the ASD Specification. All members and connections in the Seismic Force Resisting System shall be proportioned as required in the ASD Specification to resist the applicable load combinations and shall meet the requirements in these Provisions. Part III includes the Part I Glossary and Appendix S. 2.

REFERENCED SPECIFICATIONS, CODES, AND STANDARDS

Substitute the following for the first two paragraphs of Part I Section 2: The documents referenced in these Provisions shall include those listed in ASD Specification Section A6 with the following additions and modifications: American Institute of Steel Construction Specification for Structural Steel Buildings—Allowable Stress Design and Plastic Design, June 1, 1989 including Supplement No. 1, December 17, 2001 Substitute the following for the last paragraph of Part I Section 2: Research Council on Structural Connections Specification for Structural Joints Using ASTM A325 or A490 Bolts, June 23, 2000, Appendix B 4.

LOADS, LOAD COMBINATIONS, AND NOMINAL STRENGTHS

Substitute the following for Part I Section 4.2 in its entirety: Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel Buildings, May 21, 2002 American Institute of Steel Construction
