For a project to be successful, it takes more than good number crunching by an engineer. The engineer is only one part of a much larger team working together to design and construct the project. Sometimes, the lines of responsibility can be unclear, leading to delays, arguments and stress. Who is responsible for what? How is the burden of responsibility determined in cold-formed steel (CFS) design and construction practice? This webinar will introduce and share recent updates to the AISI Code of Standard Practice (COSP), discuss the contents of the COSP as it applies to a typical CFS project, and answer participant questions by way of an expert in both CFS design and CFS project management.
Learning objectives:
- Cover the different roles that architects, engineers, contractors, fabricators and other parties play in a CFS framing project.
- Gain knowledge of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Code of Standard for Structural Cold-Formed Steel Framing (COSP).
- Become familiar with common examples of items in the COSP and how they can be used in actual projects.
- Identify new items/changes in 2020 edition of the COSP.
