Adhere to the standards set forth in AISC Design Guide 14
This design guide covers the design and construction of staggered truss framing systems, which can be used to frame steel buildings with a floor-to-floor height approximately equal to that of flat-plate concrete construction. Content includes diaphragm design, truss member and connection design, mechanical design considerations, erection considerations and fire protection considerations.
