________________________________
HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THE LIST
--------------------------------
Open your email program (logged on as the email name that you are
unsubscribing).

Send a blank email message to Steel-Detail-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com

After a few moments (sometimes longer for some email providers) you will receive
a message asking to confirm your request.

Reply to the message.
This will take you off of the email list and you will no longer receive posts
from the list nor will you be able to post to the list.

Instructions on how to unsubscribe are also added to the bottom of messages sent
to the list.

____________________________
HOW TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE LIST
----------------------------
Open your email application

Send a blank email message to Steel-Detail-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

You'll receive a message back from our system asking you to confirm your
subscription request. Simply reply to that message to be added to this list.

Or you can simply fill out the online subscription form from our web page at:

http://www.steel-link.com

________________________________
HAVING TROUBLE SENDING MESSAGES?
--------------------------------
Messages are usually processed within a few minutes. Sometimes it may take up to
a couple of hours for your message to be processed through the Internet. The
length of time depends upon the speed of the servers between you and our server
and general Internet traffic. There might be a problem if you send an email to
the list and don't receive a copy of your own message in a couple of hours. The
first thing to check if you send a message to the list and don't receive a copy
of your own message is to be sure that you sent it to the right address.

Next, make certain you are using the same email account you used when you
subscribed to the list. You may be attempting to post or receive messages at a
different address (i.e., work vs. home) than the one you are subscribed under.
If you are still experiencing problems see the next section.

_______________________________________
RE-DIRECTED EMAIL ADDRESSES AND ALIASES
---------------------------------------
Re-directed mail takes the form of simple forwarding (which you control) or
aliases, which generally are not under your control. An "alias" is what occurs
when some ISPs, universities or corporations route email through their system in
ways that slightly alter the address. For example: "yourname@..." is
sometimes altered to "yourname@..." While this alteration is
transparent to you and does not affect the vast majority of mail you receive,
our server's will detect the change when you try to post to a list using your
email client, and will bounce messages as coming from an invalid address. You
can find out if this is happening to you by examining the header information in
any bounced message. If you do not know how to do this, forward a copy of the
bounced message to us with a request that we examine it for you.

You can eliminate this problem by adding the alias as an additional address,
unsubscribing your original address and re-subscribing your new one, or, if
convenient, using a web-based free email account (such as Hotmail or Yahoo). If
you are unsure of what to do, contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

If your mail is being forwarded to an address that has not been verified or you
are not subscribed to the list you are attempting to post to under that address,
you must remove the forwarding or subscribe the address you are forwarding to in
order to post.

_______________________________________
NOT RECEIVING MESSAGES/BOUNCED MESSAGES
---------------------------------------
Are you not receiving messages from the list? Have you tried to re-subscribe,
but are being told that you are already subscribed? Symptoms such as these are
probably the result of your email address being unreachable for a period of
time. If our list provider cannot deliver a post to a subscriber's email
address, your subscription will automatically be changed from active (receiving
posts) to disabled (still subscribed but no posts sent to you or accepted from
you). A subscriber will be disabled if either:

1) Your email address hard-bounces once.
2) Your email address soft-bounces 63 times or for 3 days.

Soft bounces refer to currently unreachable email addresses, the result of
temporary problems with the subscriber's mail host or with routing delays across
the Internet itself. Hard bounces are invalid or permanently unreachable
addresses, the result of closed or abandoned email accounts, people that left
the company they worked at, misspelled email addresses, etc.

If your domain bounces email, we cannot prevent your subscription from being
disabled, since this is done automatically. Please go to
http://www.steel-link.com/2002/support/listsupport.cfm to report that you
suspect this has happened to you and we will turn your subscription back to
active. If your domain continues to bounce email, and your subscription is
disabled again, we recommend that you contact your email service provider or get
another email address at one of the free services (yahoo.com, excite.com, etc.)
and use that email address to participate in the list.

_________________________________
HOW TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE LIST
---------------------------------
You must be a subscriber to the list before you can successfully send messages
to the list.

Sending your message to the Steel-Detail mailing list is as simple as sending an
email message. All you have to do is send your message to the following email
address:

Steel-Detail@yahoogroups.com

Any message you send to this address will automatically be forwarded to a
moderator for approval. If approved it will be forwarded to all the subscribers
to this list. BE SURE THAT YOU SEND IT FROM THE SAME EMAIL ADDRESS THAT YOU
SUBSCRIBED WITH. Include a topic for the subject header that gives everyone an
idea of what the content is about.

___________________________
HOW TO RESPOND TO A MESSAGE
---------------------------
Most of the time if you want to respond to a message on the list you'll simply
reply to the entire list by sending your response to the same email address:

Steel-Detail@yahoogroups.com

Sometimes you may wish to respond in private directly to the original author of
the message. In this case you would simply reply by sending your message to the
author's address.

Please be aware that by default the discussion list software inserts the list's
email address in the "Reply To:" header. This default address will appear
whenever you click on the "reply to" button/key/command. If you click on the
"reply to" button/key/command, your message will be sent to all subscribers. To
reply to the original author you will have to insert the address their email
address manually.

PLEASE NOTE: All email sent to the list is viewable to the public.

___________________________
VIEW & SEARCH LIST ARCHIVES
---------------------------
To view and search past message in the Steel-Detail list archives simply use
your internet browser and go to

_________________________
SENDING FILES TO THE LIST
-------------------------
Please don't attach files to an email message when sending them to the list. If
you have a file that you would like to share with other members of the list
please post a message informing everyone that you have it and either email it to
everyone that requests it separately or make it available on the "FREE Software
Download" area on our web site located at http://steel-link.com/. Attachments
are stripped from all messages sent to the list to help prevent the spread of
viruses.

__________
NETIQUETTE
----------
Netiquette is courtesy, manners and common sense combined with some simple
network use standards that have evolved over the years. Below are some general
Netiquette E-mail guidelines.

PLEASE NOTE that repeated violation of items "1, 2 and/or 3" are grounds for
REMOVAL from the list without warning.

1. Don't flame! Flaming is sarcastically criticizing, berating or otherwise
communicating something inflammatory to someone else. This is not only not nice,
it is also unnecessary for effective communication. Kindly take your arguments
with the individuals directly involved to private email.

2. Don't use abusive or vulgar language. Have consideration for the audience of
your post.

3. Keep the content of your email on topic. Ask yourself the following questions
before you send the email to the list. Does my message pertain to steel
detailing? Is this list the right audience for this message? Would it be better
to respond only to the original author or to the entire list when answering or
commenting? Topics about religion and politics should be discouraged as these
topics are not usually related to steel detailing. Please think before sending!

For "off topic" messages you may wish to join the Cool Detailers email list. On
Cool Detailers list members can and will be abusive. Do not join if you do not
accept these facts. THERE ARE NO RULES. (The Cool Detailers list is not operated
by Steel-Link.)
For more information about the Cool Detailers list and/or to subscribe go to:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cooldetailers/

4. Don't shout! Turn your CAPS LOCK off and use upper case letters like you
would in any other writing. Capitalized words are used for EMPHASIS. It is
considered SHOUTING if you write your message using all upper case letters!

5. Don't over quote! Quoting is the process of including the original message to
you in your reply. Your email software will usually have the capability of
deleting portions of the original message that are not pertinent to your reply.
Only include that which is vital to the reply--to remind the recipient about the
context of your reply.

6. Don't try to enforce your opinion over those of others. Everyone is entitled
to his or her own opinion; respect those of others. If you post a controversial
opinion, don't be surprised if you get a bunch of responses! Don't get into
arguments over opinion differences.

7. If using a "signature" on your messages, keep it brief and provide only that
information that is vital for others to communicate with you.

8. Avoid sending messages or posting articles which are no more than gratuitous
replies to replies. Also avoid sending "Me too" or "I agree" messages unless you
have additional comments to make.

9. Refrain from sending email messages using html encoding. Many recipients
cannot view html encoded messages as you think they may. Some readers see this
type of message as raw unreadable code. To make sure that your message reaches
the largest audience possible in a usable form, please turn this function off
before sending your email to the list.

10. Avoid attaching files to an email message. If you have a file that you would
like to share with other members of the list please post a message informing
everyone that you have it and either email it to everyone that requests it
separately or make it available on the "FREE Software Download" area of the
Steel-Link web site located at http://steel-link.com/. Attachments are stripped
from all messages sent to the list to help prevent the spread of viruses.

11. Please refrain from posting the same message to multiple lists. Please keep
your message on topic. If it regards detailing, please send it to the
Steel-Detail list. If it regards fabricating, please send it to the Steel-Fab
list. If it pertains to engineering, send it to the Steel-Engineers list. Many
people are subscribed to more than one list and do not like to receive duplicate
messages.

________________________
A WORD ABOUT ADVERTISING
------------------------
Blatant advertising is STRONGLY discouraged! You should think twice before
posting an advertisement. Some people really dislike spam (junk email).  Use
common sense when posting messages and ask yourself the following question. Will
the advertisement win enough business to risk the chance of losing other
business by upsetting some readers? If you decide against this advice then it is
suggested that you at least put the word "ADVERTISEMENT:" or "AD:" in the
subject header. Deceptive advertising will not be tolerated and will be cause
for removal from the list.

right.. TC bolts come automaticly with 1-washer.

the problem I am discussing is about A490 bolts and A36 it is a requirement that
there are 2-washers 1 under the head and 1 under the bolt. I think everone has
been thinking since A992 steel is being used not to worry. but angles and plates
still come in A36 grade.

angles in A572 are hard to come by..

it is reasonable that it would not be required. Also I do not think the bolt
turns in this type of tension system so galling under the head is not passoible
like with impact tightening of conventional hex head bolts?

Brian there is no program. Here is what I did

1.   I have a line for my FAX and I used that line for my DSL and FAX
2.   Ordered DSL and Broadband modem from SBC on the FAX line number
3.   Purchased a Linksys router with firewall (not wireless) and Ethernet
cables for each PC
4.   Acquired a 3com Super Stack dual speed hub from a friend (not required
for 4 or less)
5.   Received DSL modem and line splitter parts from SBC
6.   Checked with SBC to see if DSL was working on named line
7.   Placed splitter (furnished by SBC) in phone jack
8.   Hooked FAX machine into splitter phone side
9.   Hooked Ethernet cable into splitter cable side
10.  Put Ethernet cable into broadband modem
11.   Ran Ethernet cable from modem to firewall router
12.  Ran Ethernet cable from router to hub
13.  Ran Ethernet cables from hub to each computer

I have 12 ports on this hub that I can connect PC's to SBC only allows 10
addresses
I only use 6. I you only need 4 this can be done without the hub as my route
has 4 ports.

Good Luck hopes this helps - I will have to say that I have been very
pleased with this setup and connection speed. I send out ACAD dwgs non
compressed in 2 to 5 megs with no problems.

Subject: ERROR IN NC FILES CREATED BY XSTEEL
lanciab037
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi list,
               Just a wee warning to anyone out there who is using xsteel and
creating nc files for automated
machinery.
The problem arises when you have one of the following situations:

1. The end of a sloping beam has a double skew cut i.e a fitting cut for the
saw, then a line cut for the other skew.
             _____________
            /
            \
              \
                \__________


2. The end of a beam is skew cut the notched ( coped ).

                  __________
                 |
                 |
          ____|
          \
            \__________


         If the resultant depth of the web ( on the fitting line ) after the cuts
have been made is less than half the beam depth
then the angle of cut in the header bloc of the nc file is shown as zero, not
what it should be.

I can be manually solved on the machine controller, but the operator has to be
made aware of the beams in question
or they are all straight cut.

Tekla have been informed and are working on a solution that works ( it seems
they knew about
it , solved it but created problems elswhere - thanks for letting us know)

Anyway, as I said a wee warning for the users out there

regards

  Stuart

I no longer have current standards, and am looking for reference material for
OSHA handrail height requirements.

Our standard is 34" above the nose line. Have received rails done at 32" I think
that this is the OSHA standard, is this correct?

Does anyone know if MSHA has the same standard?

everybody thanks for the help.

at a36 material you do not need to have a washer under head of bolt for A490 TC
bolt if the head provides equal bearing circle to a std hard washer.

I finally figured it out. I had ranito this some time ago and got approval but
for got the particular sections of the spec. Since then new books and such and
have not run into it for awhile.

See AISC 3rd edition 16.4-41 / table 6.1 note (a)

Subject: HSS hanging from joists
lgaswint
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi-

I am detailing some HSS hangers that support the interior framing of a
suspended concrete running track. The bottoms of the hangers weld to the top
flange of the beams that support the decking. The top is going to be
attached to the bottom chord of the joists. The joist people tell me that
there is a 320' radius built into the joists, but that the joists may or may
not lay flat when fully loaded with the concrete. I'm thinking of leaving
the hangers long and then noting on the drawing that the hangers need to
have a simulated load applied before cutting them to length. Is there a
better way to do this?

Thanks,

Lem

Set up a bracket utilzing all thread so the adjustemtn can be applied after all
loads are in place. This way everything can be erected. If you get creative you
can make it so you would have all thread with nut welded or forged to one end.
then leave acessable to drive with impact or electric wrench.

Anybody here on the list used/using Acad 2006?

From what I've seen of it, this looks like the first real release for quite some

Subject: Fillet weld symbol interpretation
gvshwnth
Send Email Send Email
 
List,

Consider a fillet welded connection of a TS bracing
member to a gusset.
The TS member is slit and the gusset is inserted into
it.

Forces in the brace are not given and we we were not
expected to calculate the weld lengths and sizes.

The contract dwg indicates a normal double fillet weld
symbol that points to the top of the tube and bottom
of the tube and weld size given is 5/16"

The weld length is not mentioned alongside the fillet
weld triangle symbol but it is mentioned at the tail
of the arrow as 14" minimum.

My question:

1) Does this mean we provide a minimum of 14" of
fillet weld length on EACH of the four runs? Totalling
56" of fillet weld? I thought that if this was the
engineer's intent, he should have indicated 14"
clearly alongside the fillet weld symbol after the
weld size and not at the tail of the arrow.

2)Or does this mean we provide a TOTAL of 14" weld
length for the entire connection? That's just 3 1/2"
fillet weld for each of the weld runs? Not likely in
my opinion. Thats too little welding considering the
tube size and TS member size.

3) Or does this mean we provide minimum of 7" weld
length at near side at the tube top, another 7" of
weld length on the far side at the tube top and repeat
this at the bottom of the tube? Total 28".

We believe 3) is correct.

I would have sent a sketch of the detail in the
contract dwg but attachments are not permitted.
I am sending this sketch privately to  Dan Hargis,
Kevishev, Tim Quinn, Clint Strain, Joe Slater, Eddie
Partito and Dave Lowen with a request for their
opinion and to share this sketch with any list member
who wants to take a look at it before commenting. I
have also sent this to MiscIron-detail@yahoogroups.com
where attachments are permitted.


I request your opinion or advice latest by Monday
evening here (Early Monday morning at USA)

Cecil,

Sorry I took so long to respond. I have not seen any responses on the Steel
Detail list yet. The solution is easy.

Set the end connection of the beam to Plain end. Set the VB connection to Vbrc
plate Force, Re-Design, then set to User. This locks in the connection. You may
have to add the required weld size in the Vbr12 screen. Now you can set the beam
end to the desired connection.

Vish,

If you could indicate the member size, some of us may have more insight to a
suggestion.

Without seeing the sketch, following are my suggestions for 3 possible tube
sizes:
HSS3x3x1/4 - 3.5x4
HSS6x6x1/4 - 7x4
HSS12x6x3/8 - 14x4

Someone needs to send an ANSI/AWS A2.4 to the engineer. Could you send the
sketch to me?

Vish:

If the HSS section is wide enough 14" of weld may be required for shear lag. 
You don't state the width between the weld joints.  I would interpret the 14" as
the length of each weld joint, though the engineer has certainly done a poor job
telling you that.

   my opinion. Thats too little welding considering the
   tube size and TS member size.

   3) Or does this mean we provide minimum of 7" weld
   length at near side at the tube top, another 7" of
   weld length on the far side at the tube top and repeat
   this at the bottom of the tube? Total 28".

   We believe 3) is correct.

   I would have sent a sketch of the detail in the
   contract dwg but attachments are not permitted.
   I am sending this sketch privately to  Dan Hargis,
   Kevishev, Tim Quinn, Clint Strain, Joe Slater, Eddie
   Partito and Dave Lowen with a request for their
   opinion and to share this sketch with any list member
   who wants to take a look at it before commenting. I
   have also sent this to MiscIron-detail@yahoogroups.com
   where attachments are permitted.


   I request your opinion or advice latest by Monday
   evening here (Early Monday morning at USA)

Subject: Steel--Detail: Calculator-Basic Handheld

I like the ability to write programs the way I need them. I do however use or
have used most of the other construction type calculators. I would really like
to be able to easely own and program a solid easy to use piece of equipment.

My main question is can all the keys on the TI-89 bee assigned a user developed
program?

I have used HP calculators over the last 20-years and have been pretty happy
with them until the changes after the 48GX. I really liked the HP41. The best
was the HP-71 since it had basic programming built in. The key thing I used it
for was detailing and checking. I had programmed for the HP41 entire set
dimensions for detailed components on a trestle bridge.

After the HP71 the programming in different languages became tedious and took
too much time. I had to spend more time learning the new programming language
than getting my job done.

I would like to have a new checking and detailing tool in the form of a handheld
but I would like it to have the capability and ease of use as the HP71 had.

I see that the TI-89 has the capability to do basic programing.

One of the key features I need is the ability to write the programs in basic and
assign the program it to any key on the key board. Since a lot of the time
saving programs I had for the HP71 where in basic I am thinking I could transfer
them to the TI if the key board was entirely assignable.

Question does the TI-89 keyboard have the ability to take user assignments for
any key?

Best Regards
Gordon Ayres

http://www.laurowski.de/hp49/ti89hp49_comparison/ti89-hp49.htm

the link above may put HP back at the top of my list.

It notes that the HP has a fully assingable key-board. this is good becuase then
I can use keys like +, - & divide directly in my programs working with feet and
inches..

the other thing is it has a programing language which may be faster than the TI
and also has better debuger built in.

Thanks
Gordon

List,

Thanks for the responses, many of which were received
privately.
I am sending a copy of the sketch to those who
requested it.

The opinions were divided between 1) and 3)
Only one person suggested 2)

The tube size about which some of you inquired is HSS
12x8x1/2 or HSS 10x6x 1/2.
The gusset thickness is 3/4"

These were some additional bracings installed in a
building which we had recently  completed.
The client wanted the building height to be increased
in future and the engineer had indicated additional
TSS bracings between some columns to be provided right
now.
This was additional work.

We issued the shop dwgs for these bracings for
approval only.
The Fabricator was in a hurry and did not wait for
approval.
He fabricated the bracings and erected and field
welded them.
The engineer stated in his comments received later
that the weld lengths were inadequate and increased
all the fillet weld sizes to compensate.
The fabricator does not want to do this in the field
without compensation and asked us if our weld lengths
were okay.
We told him we had detailed per contract dwgs.
The engineer has rejected this and insisted on his
increased weld sizes.
The GC has asked the Fabricator to do the needful.

The fabricator is displeased with us.
He does not like to receive Rfis.
He does not like clouds in our drawings.
He thinks we raise too many rfis and put too many
clouds.

He was perhaps keen to finish this additional work
which had landed in his lap at the last moment and
leave the site.
That was perhaps the reason for his fabricating and
erecting the bracings before approval.
He is now incurring extra expenditure on sending a
welder to deposit additional welds at some places.


All that we can do now is to explain how we
interpreted the weld symbol in the contract drawing.
I don't want to join issue with the engineer on the
correctness or ambiguity of the weld symbol.

It's a difficult world for us detailers.

Regards
Vish

Given a 12" wide tube and assuming the 12' leg is vertical (i.e. the welds are
12" apart). 14" of weld along each side (56" total) is correct.
See page 6-17 of AISC HSS Connections Manual, last item on page ("Lw)."  This
requirement is due to shear lag. I fail to see how increasing the SIZE of weld
will satisfy this requirement which is based on LENGTH of weld.

I won't comment on what the fabricator did or on what you did except to say,
when the contract drawings are sub-standard, we do whatever is necessary to
bring our steel into compliance with accepted standards. The clause that states
something to the effect of all detailing to be done per AISC Standards
supersedes any bone head mistake the engineer may have made. The fabricator
proceeding without your written release for fabrication is clearly him treading
into dangerous water.  If you threw him a life preserver and he still drowned
its not your responsibility. You have a right to approval of your drawings just
as the GC and fabricator do.
