GENERAL.
Thi s @EP Steel Handbooki s i ntended primarily t o serve as a guide En the
se1ec.tict1 and use of locatiy available structurat steel products. These products
are di vi ded into fi ve classes based on tho method of,manufact~lrr: and/or
maxi mum thickness of t he section, The fi rst fi ve parts of t hi s handhook
corresponrt t o t!lesct classes as follows:
Part 1 Bui l t-Up Shapes
Part 2 Cold-Formed Plate Shapes
Part 3 Cold-Formed Li ght Gagc Shapes
Part 4 Rol!ec! Shapes
Part 5 Met al Decks
Each of these parts presents a series of tables of computed and/or
compi l ed data. These data consi st of sectional dimensions and properties
chosen and arranged t o enable rapid and convenient selection of structi l ral steel
members. For increased usefulness, several other tables, formulas, and design
i nformati on are presented in Parts 6 t o 9 of thi s handbook.
As an updated edi ti on of t he ASE-P Handbook of Steel Shapes and
Sections, thi s handbook has considerably been expanded and contai ns several
major revisions. The major revisions include the fol l owi ng:
1. The thickness of steel pi ates f or the bui l t-up and bent plate have
been modified. The thickness adopted corresponds t o the bar
sizes of rei nforci ng steel bars primarily t o facilitate recollecr;on.
Thi s adaptati on eliminates thi ckness wi t h fractions of millimeters.
The maxi mum thickness adopted for bui l t-up sections was also
increased f rom 44 t o 45 millimeters. The maxi mum thicltness usad
for bent shapes has been reduced from 25 t o 20 millimeters.
2. The thickness of steel sheets for l i ght gage sectiorrs have heen
modified. The adopted thickness range f r om 2.0 t o 6.0 millimeters
in increments of 0.5 mi l l i meti x. This compares witit t he thi cl ~ness
used in the fi rst edi ti on whi ch range f r om 1.2 t o 4.7 mi i l i ~nei ers
wi t h varyi ng i ncr en~ent s of 0.2 or 0.3 miliirnetcr
The range of overali depths of built-up BW and BH sections has
been modified. The overall depths of BW sections adopted range
from 200 to 1,000 mitfimeters in increments of 50 or 100
mitlimetets from the previous range of 100 lo 920 millimeters
with variable increments. The overail depths of BH sections
sdopred from 200 to 700 millimeters compared to the prevlous
195 ro 425 millimeters.
BuUt-up wide flrnga Tee, ~WT,$ection properties has been added.
The rolled shapes and sections has considerably been expanded
with the adoption of sections from the AtSC Manual of Steel
Consttuction, 93h edition, except for the angle sections. Although
the standard AtSC designations were adopted, the tabulated
section properties are in SI units.
Part 5, presenting two metal deck shapes has bean added to the
hendtrook. Metal decks are cold-formed light gage shapes and
norn~affy vary with the manufacturer. The handbook limited the
shapes to those shapes tocally available.
The discussion on steel frat products, originally incorporated
within the rolted shapes, has been considerably expanded to
include excerpts from standard specifications. his expansion
mftriteri the separation of the discussion to a new Part 6 uf the
handbook.
Design examples has bean added in the new Part 7 of the
handbook. Each of the five design exampies include detaiiod
discussions and references to the differen1 parts of this handbooit
as wall as i f ) @ NSCP.
The discussion on welded ]oints. pteviously presented with the
miscell~neaus tabtes and &ate, is presented in a seaerated Part 8
af this handbook. An expanded misceftaneoos tables and data is
presented in Part 9.

The sectfons and shapes ptessnted i n the first three parts of this

fkt products, and the availabiiity and limitations of the equipment required in
tha fabrication of these shapes and sections.
There are t wo generai methods af producing structural shapes from flat
me t products. On$ is by welding together plates into the desired shape, and
the other is by cold-formine plates, coils sheets, or strips.
Shapes produced by weldrnents are referred here as 'flultt-Up' shapes
an8 are limited t o the use of plates having a thickness greater than or equal t o
6.0 milfimoters.
Shapes may also be cold-formed by passing the Rat steel products i n roils
the desired shape i s attained, or by press brake bending. For consistency
with common practice, however, these shapes are divided into two classes
ckybtrnding on the thickness of the base metal used. Cold-fot .ad piate shapes
are produced from plates wi th thickness greatef than ar equal $6.0 millimeter.
Cold-formed tight gage shapes, on the other hand, are prod^ ad from coifs,
sheets, or strips with thicknessless than or eq nl to 6.0 mlllit: \tw.

For plates, t he fol l owi ng thickness, i n millimeters, were adopted: 6, 8, 10, 12.
16, 20, 25, 28. 32, 40, 45, For l i ght gage sections the fol l owi ng thickness, i n

Because of the general flexibility of the fabrication methods, an i nfi ni te
variation of shapes and sections can be produced. The shapes presented have
been l i mi ted t o those con~monl y used for each classification.
For t he sections, the dimensions were chosen such that the opt i mum
utilization of the available fl at products i s attained. Furthermore, the dimensions
were chosen such that certain l i mi ts given i n the provisions of applicable codes
and speci fi cati oi ~s are not exceeded. These l i mi ts are discussed more ful l y i n
the t ext accompar!ving each part of thi s handbook.
Note t hat the f abr i ~at ed sections presented are not standard stock
sections. The designer is also i n no way limited t o the tabulated shapes and
sections. Use of special shapes and sections may be advantageous in somfa
cases where substantial economy may be derived f rom i ts use. Furthermore,
special shapes and sections may also be required t o meet requirements
particular t o a given probl em.
ROLLED SHAPES
Rolled shapes are defined here as those produced by passina red-hot
bl ooms or bi l l et steel through rolls unti l t he desired shape is attained. Except f ~ r
t he angles. t he shapes and sections adopted are those f rom the 9t h edition of
the Al SC Manual of Steel Construction. The Al SC sections adopted include the
W, S, C, WT and pipe sections.
As stated above, t he designation used i n thi s handbook is identical t o
those used i n the Al SC Manual, al though the section dimensions and properties
are presented in the SI units.
SECTION AND PROPERTIES
The sectional properties tabulated were calculated based on generally
accepted engineering principles and were generated usi ng mi cro-computers.
Simplifications and/or assumptions particular for each class of shapes arc
discussed in the descriptive material pi eceedi ng each part of thi s handbook.

BUILT-UP SHAPES
Built-up 8hapc.s are herein defined as structural steel
sections made up of steel platas with thicknesi* ranging from
5 . 0
nun to 45.0 mm, welded together to form structural ohapas.
Considering that locally produced rolled shapes are normally
limited to depths of about 200 mm, built-up sections are fre--
quently used as a substitute for rolled sections.
Soma fabricators use modern equipment, such as multiple head
gas cutting amchines and automatic welding machines, needed in
the production of built-up shapes. These modern equipment have
considerably increased the economy and efficiency of production
of built-up sections. With the tables presented in this Part 2
of the Steel Handbook, designers may dlrectly select and speclfy
a built-up section, Alternatively, the tables may be used to
facilitate the substitution of built-up becrions for rolled
sect ions.
Scope and Classification
As defined above, there is an infinite number of posslble
shapes which could be presented. For simplicity, however, this
Steel Handbook is limited to the most corrronly used built-up
shapes. i-e. the bi-symmetric I shape and the wide flange Tee
shape.
Three specific built-up shapes are presented in this Steel
Handbook, the BW, BH, and BWT shapes. The BW sections are in-
tended primarily for use as becam members, while the BH sections
are normally intended for use as columns. The BWT sections are
intended for use as truss top and bottom nhord elements. The
classification and designation relating to tZ?ese shapes are given
below.

The designation of built-up sections arm based on outside
depth weight per meter length rather than on a21 dimensions
of the buikt-up section as is used in other standards. The adopt-
ed form i s tisimpler and is one which is familiar to local desiw-
ers .
The BW and BH sections are distinguished by the ratio,
tx/ r y e of the radius of gyration about the %-X and Y-Y axes,
rosplctively. EU sectiona have r,/ry ratios gtraater h a or
equal to 3.0, while BH sections have r,/ry ratios less than 3.0.
The grouping, however, doe8 not imply that tne EW aectiom
are to be used only as beams, and BH sections aa columns. Pap
ticular loading or lateral support conditions or other require-
abents m y dictate the shape of a given memb%r.
The built-up tee (BWT) sections presented are assumed to be
obtained by cutting BW sections similar to rolled tee sections.
The depth df BWT soctione are therefore half Of those correapon&.
Lng Btt sections,
A total of 255 built-up sections are presented in this st-1
Bandbook. Of these, 88 are SU sections with depths ranging frw
200 1 ~ 1 to 1000 m. There are 81 BH sections with depths rang-
ing from 206 am to 700 m.. There are 86 BW-sections with depthp
ranging tram 100 am to 500 mmn.
Materials
The m~nimum quality reqairement for built-cp shape
fabrrca..
tion is structural steel coxktoxining to ASTR A36 and/or Jf S
~ 3 1 0 1
SS 400 (formerly JTS C3101 SS 41).
3. 'St 1 f?andbook
Locally rolled plates are available for these grades oi
mtructural steel which have minimum specified yield stresses, I".,
of 248 Wtj aad 245 MPa, respectively. The sectional propertief5
and limits of built-up shapes and sections are based on thcse
values. Further information regarding materials for built-up
ahapes i s given in Part 6.
Sectional Dimensions
A major consideration in the choice of dimensions of the
sections is the optimum utilization of locally available plates.
Again, to facilitate easy recall in detailing and deslgn and to
simplify splices between connections, out-to-out" depth at pre-
dlctable increments is adopted in this Steel Handbook.
With the "out-to-out" depth, the clear distance between
flanges will vary depending on the flange thickness resulting in
a lower .yield of the web plates. This situation is unlike the
case of rolled wide-flange and S-shapes whose clear distances
between flanges are kept constant for each family of the nominal
depths. The constant clear distance between flanges of rolled
sections is due to the roiling equipment used in its manutact:?.rre
where sectional differences within a family are achie>*ed by
vdifying the flange dimensions and the web thicknesses.
Built-up sections, however, are not subject to these limi-
tations. ff: I s believed that the use of a constant "or.!t-tc-ont"
dapth would provide ease in detailing, fabrication a i d
erection. Fi:rthermore, it is' believed that the cited ut i l iz;lticn
of plates could still be improved by choosing a proper cutting
layout or by using the remaining plate materials for sec:ondar.y
structural elements such as gussets and stiffeners.
Asids from the utii-ization of available plates, the dimen-
sions of the flanges of both BW and RH sections were proportioned
to satisfy the limit on the width to thickness ratio for unatiff-
ened elements of the compression flange according to NSCP Sect.
4.5.1.4.1. This limiting ratio, of 170/JFg, equals to 10.8 for
structural steel coaforming.to ASTM A36.
1-8 Built.-ilp Shapes
For the web dimensions of BW sections, the thicknesses were
lFaited such that the allwnbls shear stress ray be taken as
Q.40Fg
without. the use of stiffeners.
The maximum ratio of the.
cl~asr distance between flanges to web thickness h/t, equal to
]1000/lF . For a yield stress of 248 MPa, this ratio has a value
of 63. 5. Note that stiffeners should still be provided as re-
quirad by otbr provisions of the code, particularly NSCP
Sects.
4.10.5 and 4.10.10.
For ttm ueb dimensions of BH aections, the thickneases were
limited so that the depth to thickness ratio of the web, h/t;,
Qar not exceed the value specified by NSCP forxala 4.5-4b.
This
limiting ratio, 675/JFy, has a value of 42.8 for Fy equal to 248
NRa.
ti%ctional Properties
The properties, ratios, and weights of the sections were
aemputed cansidering the diQ+amions of the flange and web plates
anly. The weld aatarial was excluded. Ifi a competitive design
r*nd constmctien environment, some besigners would include the
capacity of the weld nmterial.
For built-up tees, values of Q, and C', for Steel with mini-
mum yield oltrese, Fy equal to 248 MFa are also tabulated. For
gections with width to thickness ratio of unstiffened
projecting
eleaants of comgreesion flange exceeds 330/ JFy as specified ip,
lPSCP Sect. 4.9.1.2, the allowable stress is governed by the
~ S O V ~ S ~ O ~ S of Appendix A, Section A2, A5 and A6 of Chapter 4,
Part 2 of the MBCP. Where no values of 9, and C', are shown, the
krullt-up tee conforms to NSCP Sect. 4.9.b.2 and is considered as
fully effective.
The dtmansion " w" given in the tables of dimensions
properties is the minimum Leg size of fillet weld& as
Specified
in NSCP Table 4. 17. 2A. The actual size of fillet welds must be
specified by the designer. To facilitate this calculation, the
quantity Qf/Ix are tabulated for each BW and BH oectio~~s.

Co-nts an the Design Tables
Aside ftom the tables of dimensions and properties, a Beam
Selaction Table for the BW sections is included to facilitate the
sslect2.on of flexural members dtlslgned on the basis of NSC? Sect.
4.5.1.4.1. For ease of use, the quantities required to check the
compact section criteria are included, together with the limit-
ing values of the unbraced lengths.
For the design of compression members, a table of the allow-

COLD-FORMED PLATE SHAPES
General
Cold-formed plate shapes are normally used as substitutes
for particular families of rolled shapes llke angles and channels
because .of the limited ranges of sections available for the
latter.
Cold-formed plate shapes are defined here as sections made
from steel plates with thickness ranging from 6.0 mm to 20.0 mm
formed by cold rolling or by press brake bending
into the desired
shapes. Shapes cold-formed from thinner plates are designated as
light gage shapes and are covered in Part 3 of this handbook.
Compared to built-up sections which use plate thicknesses up
to 45.0 mm, a maximum plate thickness of 20.0 mm was adopted for
cold-formed plate sections. This maximum was adopted due to
concerns on possible material damage and the difficulty of fabrl-
cating shapes using thicker plates. Furthermore, because of t"o
relatively thicker steel material used compared to the light gape
shapes only. simple shapes requiring few bends are included i n
this handbook.
For the design of cold-formed plate sections, the pronlslons
of the American Iron and Steel Institute's (AISI) Specificario~l
for the Deaign Of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members are recom-
mended.
Scope of Classification
Only two families of simple structural shapes are given in
this Part 2: the angles and the channel. The classification and
designations relating to these shapes are given below.

A tatal o t 77 bent-plate sections are presented in this
statel Wandbgcik. Of these, 23 are BA shapes having equal legs
witn deptha ranging front 50 to 200 m, and 27 are BA shams
w i n g unequal. iegs wkrn deptfu3 ranging from 75 m to 225 mi,
The remaining 1 7 sections are BC shapes with depths ranging froop
70 m to 390 m~ n .
The mini- quality rrzquirisanl: for cold-farmed plate fabrr-
cation is structural steel eonforming to ASTW A35 and/or 31.9
63103. 5S400 [farmerly 319 C3101 SSQl). Locally rolled plates are
avaifabls for these grades of rirtructurai steel, whicb have mlnr-
specified yield stress, %, of 248 MPa and 245 MPa, xespec-
ly, The aw.?kianal prcpertfera and listits of cold-formsd plate
s are W35o8 M these values. Further informatiozi regarding
ials of col8-forme4 plate shapes is given in Part 6 of t h i s
R consideration in the chc?ice of dimtlnsions i S "ihe util :.%a-
tion of fbcalXy-wai'lahle staa3 plates. Yi e l Ct is Camputed 1 1 ? i r ~
1829 nun wide pl at es, equal ~ i d t h strips, and an allowance of 3 ale
gmr cut,
The sectional dimensions are also chosen such that the
maximum allowable compressive stress on the unstiffened elements
may be taken as 0.60Fy based on the AISI provisions. Thus, the
legs of the angles and the flanges of the channels were propor-.
tioned such that the flat width to thickness ratio, w/t, does not.
exceed 166/JF..
This limiting ratio has a value of 10.54 for
Fy
equal to 248 &pa.
In this Steel Handbook, the plate thicknesses of the hdse
metal now adopts metrlc dimensions and increments ranging from
6.0 mm to 20.0 mm as compared with 6.3 mm to 25. 0 nun in the Jst
Edition. Based on current observations of locally-produced mate-
rial, this maximum limit of 20.0 mm is considered as the current
practical limit because of the difficulty of bendlng thicker
plates to the required radius.
The radii of bends, R, given in the tables are minimum
values and are measured from the inside face 3f the bends. In
coordination with the metal fabricators, the inside bend radius
of thcse cold-formed plate shapes are now uniformly made as 2.0
times the material thickness compared with the 1.5 times to 2.0
times the material thickness in the 1st Edrtion. These limits arc
imposed to avoid "necking" and micro-cracking of the material at
the bends during cold-forming.
Sectional Properties
Sectional properties used in this Steel Handbook are now
computed utilizing selected metric dimensions and increments
based on ASTM A36M-87 steel plates as compared wlth the 1st
Edition which were done using selected ASTM A36 st.eel plates
with "English" dimensions and increments.
The properties, ratios, and weights of these cold-formed
plate shapes are computed using the so-called "area m.,thodw based
on the actual dimensions of the section taking into consideration
the effect of the bend. The so-called "linear method" normally
used for light gage sections is not used for the determination of
the sectional properties of tbese shapes.

Cold-Formed Light Gage Sha~x?s 3 - 3
COLD-FORMED LIGHT GAGE SHAPES
General
This part of the Steel Handbook deals with light gage struc-
tural steel shapes cold-formed from coils or sheets which
thick-
nesses ranging from 2.0 mm to 6.0 mm. Shapes bent from plates
with thicknesses from 6.0 mm to 20.0 mm are designated as cold-
formed plate shapes and covered in Part 2 of this Steel Hand-
book.
The use of conventional built-up shapes is uneconomical in
some cases bscause of the very low stress developed even for the
lightest available section. In such situation, light gage sec-
tions are normally used.
The performance of light gage shapes under load, however,
differs in several significant respects from that of heavy rolled
sections. Because of its slender flat elements, light gage sec-
tions tend to buckle at stress levels lower than the yield point
, when subjected to compressive. bending, shear, and bearing
i
stresses. This local buckling does not, however, neceasariiy
mean failure as additional loads may still be carried even by the
"buckled" member. The design criteria for these sectlons *re
therefore based on the post-buckling strength ~f the members
after local buckling has occurred. Furthermore, as these are
normally open sections, torsional buckling or torsion-flexural
buckling may be significant depending on the relationship of the
shear center to the centroid of the section.
Light gage steel construction also differs from that of
heavy steel in the shapes of the sections used, connections, and
fabrication practices. As a result, design specifications for
heavy hot-rolled and built-up steel construction do not apply.
The provisions of the American Iran and Steel Institute's Speci-
fication for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members
are recommended for use in conjunction with the analysis and
design of light gage steel sections.

3-4 Cold-For@& Light Gage Shapes
9wp and Clalaapiification
cold-formd light gage atructural steel me-rs can be
Uivibed into two product categories: fraraing members and nur-
face rpsmbars. The latter are generally used for roof decks,
floor decks, wall panels, and siding material.
Due to the relative ease of producing a great variety of
cold-fornred sections, several shapes have been developed and
us&. These include cees, zeee, angles, hats, tubes. tees, and
I-oactLone. Frequently, these sections are stiffened with lips
or other edge atiffenem to inhibit premature local buckling.
Because of their wide popularity and usage in the Country,
this Steel HdndWak presents only four of the simpler light gage
shapes. Two of the lour shaves, the lip-cee and the lip-me
shapes are primarily used as flexural members. The remaining
two, the square tube and the rectangular tube sWti0ns are esaen-
tially utilized as compression members. The latter closed see-
tions, however, may also be uned as flexural members. The clas-
sifications and designations relating to these shapes are given
tm(IDI0w.

A total of 281 light gage sections are given in this Steel

(5% m to 255 r m. There are 107 LZ sections with depths ranging
from 65 mnt to 200 mm. For the tubular sections, 34 are LR sec-
tions and 33 ara LS sections, The LR sections have depths ranginq
from 25 mm to 175 m while the LS sections have depths ranging
from 24 mm to I D3 ma. The latter two closed sections are based
on the nixes av, ~i l able from local manufacturers.

Materials
The minimum quality requirement for light-gage structural
framing members is structural' steel conforming to JIS G3101
SS400. Light gage shapes are normally manufactured from hot-
rolled coils which are locally available in 930 mm widths and
thicknesses ranging from 1.2 mm to 9.0 mm. However, to minimize
corrosiqn problems and to insure structural durability, light
gage sections used as s-tructural members should not be thinner
than 2.0 m. On the other side, to avoid inefficient structural
properties when inside radius of pressed light gage sections are
fabricated, light gage section plate thickness should not be
thicker than 6.0 mm. To minimize "necking" and micro-cracking at
the bend radius and prevent change of properties in the affected
zone of the bent' portion, the inside radius (in coordination with
Steel fabricators in the country) are made equal to 2.0 times the
plate material thickness.
When strength is not of prime consideration, or for non-
structural members, the minimum requirement is commercial qrlali-
ty (CQ) hot-rolled conforming to JIS G3131 SPHC and JIS G3141
SPCC (or PNS 127 Class I), respectively. Further information is
given in Part 6 of this Steel Handbook.
The specified yield strength, Fy, of SS 400 steel is taken
as 245 MPa. For the SPHC and SPCC (or PNS 127 Class 1) steels,
the specified yield stress, Fy is taken as 170 MPa.
Mthods of Cold-Forming
There are two methods generally used in the manufacture of
cold-f armed sections. These are:
(1) By roll rolling, and
( 2 ) By press brake bending.
Roll forming is uaualiy confined to a limited number of
shapes because of the cost of the rolling equipment. If the
special Set of rolls needed for each shape is available, the
production of large quantities of identical shapes is best accorc-
plish@d by roll forming.
ASEP St el Handbook
.Q?.
Forming in press brakes, is however, more economical fox
maderate production runs of limited quantities of a given
shape,
Thta is so because, in the semi-manual use of the gresa brakes,
mPy a minimum change of tooling i s needed to accommodate t h ~
f&arication of a great variety of shapes. Its mdjor drawbacks
a m the lower dimensional quality control and the higher suscep-
tibility to micro-cracking of the marerials at the corner bends
which may affect the structural integrity of the shapes.
Sectional Dimensions
As with the other fabsicated shapes, one of the major con-
siaarations in the choice of sectional dimensions is the optimun,
utilization of locally manufactured sheets or coils.The adopted
anetions could result in an average 93% coil utilization (with a
ra%ximum of about 98% and a minimum of about 88%). These percent-
ages may, however, will differ because of existing current coil
width8 and could be improved by proper planning of fabrication
procedures.
Other considerations in the choice of the sectional dimen-
sions are based on the provisions of the AISI Specifications.
For one, the lip stiffeners of the LC and LZ sections mgst
satisfy a minimum overall depth to be considered effect~ve as a
* l i p stiffener." The lip dimeneions were so chosen that they are
effective for stresses not exceeding 0.60Fy, however, under theee
stresses the full dimensions of the lip may or may not be
fully
effective in the computation of the effective section properties.
Note that the full unreduced section properties are also
used in the calculation of deflections.
Sectional Properties
The calculation of areas, n~oments of inertia and other
sectf.onal properties are usually done using appropridtc? simp1 i f i -
cations.
The section properties of thin-walled shapes are computed
using the so-called "line3r method." In this method, the varlous
area elements which compose the. section are replaced by stralqht-
line or curved-line elements. Calculating the total lengtn,
moments of inertia, etc., of these line elements, the appropriat-e
section properties of the actual sectlon can be obtained by
multiplying these quantities by the thickness. This procedure
was followed in this Part 7 of the Steel Handbook.
It should be noted that the actual area of thln elements
under compressive stresses must frequently be replaced by a
reduced effective area for calculating the effective cross-
sectional properties as required by the AISI, and thus should be
computed and considered in the design. The computed deslgn
stresses based on the effective section properties shall not
exceed the basic allowable stresses specified
Slitting Guide For Lip Sections
The following discussion is intended primarily as a guide to
fabricators and manufacturers of light gage sections in the
vlitting of locally available coil products. Two tables are
herein presented giving the theoretical width of strips and the
recommehded slitting schedule.
Table 3-1 gives the theoretical blank width required for
each particular LC or LZ section. Note that the width of the
strips increases as the thickness of the steel decreases. This
table is useful in determining the combination of sections whict
would optimize utilization of coils.
Table 3-2 presents the recommended slitting scheclulc? for
coil widths assuming uniform blank wigths are to be produced.
The table gives the number of identical strips to be cut iron the
coil and the expected yield in percent. As shown, the yield
could be as high as 98%. Note that further economy may be at-
tained by combining sections and the use of Tahl.6 3. 1 as 11o.Led
above.

Dimensional Tolerances
The tabulated dimensions and properties are theoretical
values and the finished product will normally have some slight
variations from these tabulations. To guide the designer and
fabricator, a set of recommended dimensional tolerances are given

ROLLED SHAPES
Rolled steel shapes are herein defined to inslude st ruct ural
steel sections produced by passing red-hot blooms (for larger
sections) or billets (for smaller sections) through rolls until
tke desired shape is attained.
The available shapes and sizes of locally produced rolled
shapes are limited. These include channel sections up to a depth
of 150 m, f l a t bass up to a maximum s i z e of LOO mm, angle sec-
tions up to n.naximun of 100 aun, square bars up to a maximum of
25 m. As a result, the number of sections presented in the 1st
gaition was linitad as they were based on locally produced see-
tiwns.
To increase the usefulness of the handbook, Part 4 has keen
considerably expanded to include the angles (which can be pro-
duced locally up to 100 mm) and the AISC Standard W shapes, WT
shapes, 8 shagws, and pipea. ALL designations are identical to
thm AAXSC Manual of Steel Construction, 9th Edition hut the dinzen-
eions/elastic properties and weight are converted to 8.1. units
Scope and Classification
The following structural steel rolled shapes normally
produced abroad and imported in the country are:
wide Flange, WT,
R, channel, angle and pipe sections.
The classification and designations relating t> these nhapes
are given below,

A total of 674 steel sections are presented in this Steel
Handbook. Of these, 291 are W shapes, 31 are S shapes, 29 are
channels, 206 are WT shapes. 80 are angles and 37 are pipes. W
shapes have depths ranging from 105.7 nun to 1,016.0 mm. S shapes
have depths ranging from 76.2 mm to 622.3 nun. Channels have
depths ranging from 76.2 mm to 381.0 mm. WT shapes have depths
ranging from 52.8 mm to 475.0 nun. Angles have depths ranging from
20.0 nun to 200.0 nun. Pipe sections have depths ranging from 12.7
nun to 304.8 mm.
Materials
The minimum quality requirement for rolled shapes is struc-
tural ateel conforming to the billet specifications for PNS 49
Grade 230 (structural Grade, formerly PTS 230). Locally produced
rolled shapes are available only for structural steel whose
minimum specified yield stress, Fy, is 230 MPa.
Sectional Dimensions and Properties
Except for the angles which can be locally produced up to
a
maximum depth of 100 nun, the shapes, dimensions, and Properties
of steel sections presented in this Part 4 of the Steel Handbook
are based on the data compiled from AISC, Manual of Steel Con-
struction, 9th Edition but converted to S.I. units.
ASEP ' ' eel Handbook
-124
For the locally produced angles, the adopted sec:tions have
leg dimensions which axe i,n increments of 25 mm. The increment of
the angles' thicknesses were made to be similar to that of the
plate thicknesses of the built-up shapes to facilitate easy
recall in detailing and design.
Dimensional Tolerances
The tabulated dlmennions and properties dre theoretical
values and the finished product will. normally have some slight
variations. To guide the deslgner and fabricator, a summdry a i
the dimensional tolerances as given by the ASTM Specifications A6
i s also given below. Such close tolerances are adopted to avoid
overlaps in angle legs and thickness dimensions in keeping with
internationally accepted standards as can be found say in ASTM.
For a detailed discussion on these tolerances as well as other
fabrication requirements reference to the ASTM A6 specifications
and AISC Manual of Steel Construction, 9th Edition is hereby
suggested.

parallel to web.
F + F1 applies when channel flanges are toed in or out. For channels
16 mi and under in depth, the permissible out-of-square is 0.047 m/ mm
of depth. Tolerance is given per ~ n n of flange width for S and C shapes.
For unequal angles, the longer leg determines the nominal size classi-
fication. Out-of-square tolerance is per mm of leg length.

Metal Decks 5-3
METAL DECKS
Metal decks or panels, generally considered as part of the
family of cald-fornned structural steel members, are categorized
under the classification of surface members. Roofing, siding or
wall and floor panels of various profiles, coating and base
waterials, belong to this classification. Materials used are
normally steel, aluminum and sometimes stainless steel (for spe-
cial application)
"h
This Part 5 of the Steel Handbook deals with steel floor
panels, normally referred to as floor deck, steel deck, metal
decking or aimply metal deck. Metal decks may be used structur-
ally, as a composite alternative to conventional wood or metal
formworks. However, unlike conventional formworks, metal decks
are permanent and therefore not
reusable.
For composite systems, the metal decks have positive bond
enhancements between the concrete and the metal profile to pre-
serve the integrity of the composite action. For "trapezoidal
profile" metal decks used in composite slabs, indentations along
the longitudinal elements are provided. For "othern profiles,
vertical folds or stiffened webs are totally embedded in the
concrete to provide the necessary grip for composite action.
Similar to cold-formed light gage frame members, metal decks
are manufactured from galvanized-coated continuous coils or cut
sheeta. Cold-forming may be done using press brakiog/bending
Rathods in the manufacture of "special" profiles. Generally,
bowaver, roll forming is employed by most manufacturers for mass
production.
Regarding the architectural aspect, metal decks are avail-
abla either in "ribbedn profiles or with "flatn soffits. In the
absence of a ceiling, metal decks with flat soffits are desirable
over the ribbed type. Metal deck products are mostly proprietary
in nature. The manufacturer usually holds a patent for each
particular metal deck profile being produced.
ASEP Steel I mdbook

The metal deck profiles featured in this Part 5 of the Steel
Blur. dbk ara only those available locally. The "trapezoidaln or
."rilpb&" profile is .available from Philmetal Products while the
*sl at n or *soffitm profile is produced by Condeck lnternatioaal.
;bletal decks under the brand names Steeldeck and Condeck, are
l.l#otifieQ in this Steel Usndbook as SD panels and CD panelm,
~llprctively. llirtal decks aay be ordered in s~acific length.
rer, for efficiency in drsifm, lengths should cover a mini-
llwr of three apanm. Very long apana may be limited by transport
limitations. Metal decks lass than three spans shall be check4
for both bending stresses and deflections-
The basa metal quality requirement for metal (floor) decks
gh.11 be colg-rolled steel having a minimum yield point of 206
a , conforming to the requireraents of JIS G3141 SPCC-8 and/or
PWS 127 Class 1-8. Specified ID deClDKIls and very seldom in wire
end sheet metal gages, thicknesses of metal decks range from 0.75
m to 3.20 nm (wherein 0.75 RI M to 1.60 nun are locally avallabla)
ir 914 and 1219 lea\ widths. Metal decks floor slab systems are
rWar locally available in specified minimum yield strengths, F
of 275 Wa and 550 MPa, and whose choice is norafilly dictated rj;
~ ~ t ~ n ~ l i c considerations.
Pot hot-rolled varieties, the minimmi quality requirement is

Par atmospheric corrosion-resistant steels, the minimu
quality requirement is high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) st-1
conforming to the requirements of JIS G3125 SPA-C or SPA-H, with
minimum yield atress. Fy, of 314 MPa and 343 MPa, respectively.
ASEP Steel Handbook
-206-
Metal Decks 5-5
Currently, only the galvanized cold-rolled steel of
minimum
yield strengths. Fy, of 275 MPa and 550 MPa are locally av al l -
able.
The structural propertias for each particular profile were
supplied by the manuf aoturers. However, calculation of proper -
t i a s of special configurations follow the method specified in
the Cold-Formed Steel Design Manual, AISI 1986 Edition.
When a metal deck i a primarily used as permanent form for ii
concrete slab, its design is straight forward similar to the
ecasign of an ordinary floxuzal member. As a component of a
composite slab system, however, where it is considered as a posi-
t i ve moment zeinforcament, the design calculations for metal
becks are more complicated.
The NSCP and its referral codes, the AISC fox steel, Ameri -
can Concrete Institute (ACI) for concrete and AlSX for cold-
formed members are silent on this aspect of design involving
natal decks. Furthermore, each manufacturer has its o m carnposlte
dasign method usually based on Allowable Stress Design or
Strength Design . The basic principles used are usually the
X I Code or the British Standard (BS) Code of practice for trie
dmaign of reinforced concr~te flexural members. Design examples
of each Particular metal deck profile are available free from the
ra8peCtiVe manufacturers' brochures.
Fireproofing
Fireproofing is a very critical aspect of metal decks espe-
cially if metal decks are used entirely or partially as rein-
forcement for concrete slabs. The respective nrtinufacturers claim
that their metal decks are "fire-rated" from one to two hours,
depending on the concrete slab thickness. the concrete type
(whether normal-weight or light-weight ) used, and rhe presence ar
absence Of positive. fire.-resistive paints or coatings. Regard-
less of this claim, ASEP requires that for metal decks used as
total or partial reinforcement for composite sections, they must
ha provided with a permanent effective fireproofing.
For all composite concretcr and metal decks slab system,
,&W!P rsquiras the inetallatiOn of positive and permanent methods
eP fire protaction.
Corrosion
Another very important aspect of nbatal decks if used
structural reinforcement tor concrete slabs is the corrosion
factor. For structures built in corrosive environments (lika
sari nr off-ahor6 structures, and structuree at or near
bbot es) , and structures having acidic or abrasive enviranmnts
( l i ke , manufacturing plants), astal decks should at best be used
wily as a rrsplacentant to fonaiorks.

STEEL FLAT PRODUCTS
Flat rolling or processing may be considered to involve
those operations in steel plants associated with the conver~lon
of slabs, either continuously or ingot-cast, into finished
plates, sheeta, an8 strip products, including hot-rolled, cold-
rolled and/or coated sheets. Conveniently, it is classified into
hot-rolling and cold-rolling operations which results to a final
product with a width to thickness ratio which is usually fairly
large.
The process of hot rolling consists of passing xed-hot
ductile steel slabs between two large, cylindrical steel rolls
( i n Contrast with the grooved rolls used in the production of
tShapeS, such as structural beams) revolving in opposite direc-
tlonrr but at the ease peripheral speed. Commercial (CQ) or
structural ( SQ) plates, strip, or sheet are the resulting end-
products.
In cold rolling operations, on the other hand, the hot-
rolled strip is processed to final ordered thickness without any
further heating except for annealing or heat treating purposes.
CQ or E+Q strip, or sheet are the resulting end-proaucts.
Steel flat products are Locally available in the form of
hot-rolled plates (HRP), hot-rolled ccils/sheets (HRC/HRS), and
cold-rolled coils/sheet (CRC/CRS). Likewise, coated (or finished
steel) flats which predominantly use CRC/CRS as base material.,
are also available in the form of hot-dipped zinc-coated (or
galvanized) steel. The product standards to which these are
manufactured are listed in Table 6-1.
Scoge and Classification
Thls Part 6 of the Steel Handbook specifies the characteris-
tics of plate and sheet (hot-an6 cold-rolled) products which
arrl
differentiated one from the other as follaws (based from ASTM A6M
and ASTM A56824 definitions):

tural steal conforming to the requirelnents of JIS G3101
SS400, with a specified minimum yield stress, Fy, of 245
MPa .
(3) The minimum specification for galvanized varieties is
physical (structural) quality steel conforming to the
requirements of ASTM A446 Grades A to F (with minimum
yield stress, Fy, ranging from 226 MPa to 550 MPa) or
the corresponding PNS 67 equivalent.
( 4 ) The minimum quality for atmospheric corrosion-resistant
varieties Is high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel con-
forming to the requirements of JIS G3125 SPA-C or SPA-H.

respectively.
Steel conforming to other material specifications can also
be rolled Locally. However, this is limited by the capabilities
of the local manufacturer of flat steel products. The designer
should consult with the flat steel manufacturer before specifying
any type of Locally manufactured structural or high-strength
steel not listea here in the Steel Handbook. Current mill capa-
bilities limit these grades of steel from 1.50 nun up to 12.30 mm
in thickness and widths from 660 mm to 1, 524 nun, conforming to
