AISC Steel Shapes Data

Back to Portal

The MapleCloud contains a package with the AISC Shapes v14.1 database of physical properties for standard steel members. These properties can be for structural steel design calculations.

Physical properties, when appropriate, have units; these are propagated through calculations

The package offers data for all standard AISC steel shapes, including W, S, HP, C, MC, L, WT, MT, ST, 2L, HSS and PIPE types

Live calculations and documentation can be captured in a Maple worksheet

This application , for example, is a design calculation for a simply supported beam using AISC design codes.

Typical Calculations

Note: You will need to install the AISC Shapes package from the MapleCloud to re-execute these calculations.
