CISC CAN/CSA S16.1 Steel Section Design

I developed this spreadsheet that can design Beam under flexural, Beam-Column under Uniaxial and biaxial moment in accordance to CISC CAN/CSA S16.1 Structural Steel Design.

The spreadsheet results are compared to Examples in CISC Handbook and the results match exactly.

The spreadsheet results also compare with the CSA Beam Selection Table and the results also match exactly. This program can be used to assist in the design of steel elements to CISC CAN/CSA S16.1.

I will be developing more of the spreadsheet and for those interested, you can contact me for a copy.
