Development of Spread Sheet Design Tool for Steel Beam-Column as Per International Standards

The design methodology in light of Limit State Method includes various mathematical statements and parameters, which makes the outline handle a perplexing and monotonous undertaking. Additionally outline being an experimentation procedure is extremely repetitive and time-consuming in nature. Henceforth utilization of spreadsheets can decrease the time and exertion of a planner/build extensively. On account of the minimization and adaptability, spreadsheets have turned into one of the best decisions for a designer, notwithstanding the accessibility of number of standard configuration programming packages. Despite the fact that advancement of spreadsheets are exceptionally basic now-a-days, very few of them incorporates an itemized configuration method for different universal codes. So the primary point of this undertaking is to set up a Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet which will involve an itemized configuration of Steel beam-columns for two distinctive steel codes. The two steel codes being the Indian Steel Code (IS 800-2007), and the American Steel Code (AISC 360-2010). The result of this venture will be an outline apparatus, which can be advantageously utilized by a specialist to check the outline status of a segment area and to strike a harmony between safety and economy through an optimum use of material and time as wel
