Canadian Standards are coming
Posted on 12th March 2025 at 18:21
We've started, and published one example, calculations to Canadian and North American standards S136-16 (R2021) and the North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members. to allow our cousins in North America's and Canada to design using our tools!
Following several years of development and procrastination we have finally started on tools to allow uses to design to Canadian and North American standards S136-16 (R2021) and the North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members. using the LSD method.
Our friends at www.cisc-icca.ca and Sarah Majlesi, MSc, P.Eng, PMP have provided section properties for the Canadian Market for us which we have added as a Data List and developed Roof and Floor Joist calculations using solid C joists and lattice truss solutions with studs being developed at the time of writing.
Wall studs and pitched roof trusses are all to follow in the next few weeks. If you'd like a limited demo of the tools available now, please use the Contact Us form to request a copy and we'll be happy to share.
