American Iron and Steel Institute Regional Director of Codes and Standards Jon-Paul Cardin, P.E., will conduct a webinar on “Cold-Formed Steel—Latest Design Provisions” on March 14 from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. Central Time as part of a new National Council of Structural Engineers Associations series.

The Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute is accepting entries through Feb. 24, 2023, for its annual awards program, which acknowledges outstanding achievement in creative design, technical innovation and best practices in the use of cold-formed steel and recognizes individuals who have volunteered significant time and talent to the cold-formed steel industry. The 2023 CFSEI awards will be presented in three categories: Design Excellence, Creative Detail and the John P. Matsen Award for Distinguished Service.

The American Iron and Steel Institute has published Supplement No. 3 to AISI S100-16 (Reaffirmed 2020), North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members, 2022 Edition. The North American Specification harmonizes cold-formed steel design technology across the United States, Canada and Mexico, allowing for faster introduction of new technologies as well as opening up the market for a variety of derivative products, such as design aids and educational materials.

RCA-C, an ideal solution for attaching cold-formed steel (CFS) stud framing to concrete supports, was designed to save installers time and reduce the cost of drilling connector holes at the jobsite. The RCA-C provides the most anchor options available, including holes for a 1/2"-diameter anchor screw or bolt, or for two 1/4"-diameter concrete screws positioned to allow a variety of fastening options.

AISI has published AISI D114-21, “Cold-Formed Steel Clip Angle Design Guide, 2021 Edition,” a new publication that provides practical guidance on the design of cold-formed steel clip angles.

Cold-formed steel is one of the most widely used framing materials because of its ability to provide strength and stability in a number of conditions.

The Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute (CFSEI) will host a webinar on “Innovative Cold-Formed Steel Floor System: Development, Behavior and Detailing” on Thursday, August 26, 2021 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. EDT.
