A36 is a mild steel with a yield strength of 36 ksi and is widely used in structural applications due to its low cost and good weldability.

Bolted connections are widely used in steel structures due to their ease of installation and ability to be disassembled for maintenance or repair.

Beams are primarily designed to carry horizontal loads such as wind loads or earthquake forces.

Wide-flange beams, also known as H-beams, are commonly used in steel structures due to their high strength and efficiency in carrying loads.

Columns are primarily designed to carry vertical loads such as the weight of the structure and live loads.

Wide-flange columns, also known as H-columns, are commonly used in steel structures due to their high strength and efficiency in carrying loads.

Trusses are primarily designed to carry horizontal loads such as wind loads or earthquake forces.

Warren trusses are commonly used in steel structures due to their simplicity, efficiency, and ability to carry heavy loads.

Bracing systems are designed to provide stability to the structure by resisting lateral forces such as wind loads or earthquake forces.

Concentric bracing systems are commonly used in steel structures due to their simplicity, efficiency, and ability to provide stability.

Foundations are designed to transfer the loads from the structure to the ground safely and efficiently.

Spread footings are commonly used in steel structures due to their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ability to support moderate loads.

Seismic design aims to resist horizontal loads caused by earthquakes and ensure the safety and integrity of the structure during seismic events.

Moment-resisting frames are commonly used in seismic design of steel structures due to their ability to resist lateral forces and dissipate energy through inelastic behavior.

Fire protection systems are designed to prevent or slow down the spread of fire in steel structures, ensuring the safety of occupants and minimizing damage to the structure.
