AISC 15 Shapes Type Catalog

DanH-PCS — Thu, 31 Oct 2019 17:59:37 GMT

It looks like AISC 15 was adapted (or at least the book was produced) May 2017. I'd like to get updated type catalogs that include the new shapes. Installing Revit 2020 they have 14.1 included. So... 3 yrs(?) old(?)... on new software? Kinda nuts. Any idea if the AISC 15 catalogs are available for download somewhere? I recall autodesk used to update those for download.

I'd love some pointers before I go through the task updating it myself. We all are running into this. That is key point number 1 for structural software.

Thanks.

I don't think there were any changes in the sizes between 14.1 and 15 in the AISC codes. But hopefully Autodesk can look into this some. I will reach out to an AISC contact and see what they say.

We will also check if the tables are complete.

Thanks for looking into it. FYI... V15 can be downloaded here and yes there are new sizes. https://www.aisc.org/globalassets/aisc/manual/v15.0-shapes-database/aisc-shapes-database-v15.0.xlsx

You rock! Btw.. historically some of the wide flange shapes have been out of order as well. I haven't checked the 14.1 catalog to see if they have been fixed.
