The Aluminum Design Manual Types of Structures Addressed by the Aluminum Specification Significant Figures and the Aluminum Specification PART III DESIGN CHECKS FOR STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS 7 Structural Members Tension Member Design Procedure Net Effective Area Allowable Stress . This part of the Aluminum Construction Manual deals with speci­ fications for allowable stresses in structures. It. is a compilation of methods for determining allowable stresses based largely on in­ formation generated within the aluminum industry. Much of the material published in these specifications has been.  · The Aluminum Design Manual includes an aluminum structural design specification and accompanying commentary, a supplemental design guide, material properties, properties of common shapes, design aid tables, and illustrative design examples.5/5(13).

ASD design for bridge-type structures. W = Bc, Dc, and Cc are calculated based on equations in Table B and B in Aluminum Design Manual as follows: For aluminum alloy temper designations beginning with O,H, T1, T2, T3, or T4 and welded-affected zones of all tempers. Similar to structural steel, aluminum has shapes from extrusions (angle, channel, W shape, etc), Sheet plate, Rod bar, Tube pipe, etc. See Aluminum design manual Part V for section properties. Material designation: Aluminum material is defined by its alloy and temper. For example, T6 means alloy and T6 temper. H12 means. Keyed to the revised Specification for Aluminum Structures of the edition of the Aluminum Design Manual, it provides quick look-up tables for design calculations; examples of recently built aluminum structures-from buildings to bridges; and a comparison of aluminum to other structural materials, particularly steel.

stood to design aluminium structures. It covers the influence of heat on the mechanical proper-ties of aluminium. The essential metallurgical aspects are explained to enable understanding of aluminium's nomenclature system for alloys and their temper designations. It deals with the al-loys, listed in EUROCODE 9, gives background information and advice for their selection and application for structures. I would suggest you take a look at these two publications, published by The Aluminum Association: 1) Aluminum Design Manual 2) Aluminum Structures: A Guide to their Specifications and Design, Second Edition, You can find them at www.doorway.ru, bookstore, best sellers. Keyed to the revised Specification for Aluminum Structures of the edition of the Aluminum Design Manual, it provides quick look-up tables for design calculations; examples of recently built aluminum structures-from buildings to bridges; and a comparison of aluminum to other structural materials, particularly steel.
