STANDARD LOAD TABLE IN METRIC UNITS/OPEN WEB STEEL JOISTS, K-SERIES SAFE UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTED LOAD IN KILONEWTONS/METER 21
STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR OPEN WEB STEEL JOISTS, K-SERIES ANSI Designation: SJI-K-1.0 Adopted by the Steel <strong>Joist</strong> Institute, November 4, 1985 Revised to May 1, 2000 – Effective August 1, 2002 SECTION 1. SCOPE These specifications cover the design, manufacture and use of Open Web Steel <strong>Joist</strong>s, K-Series. SECTION 2. DEFINITION The term “Open Web Steel <strong>Joist</strong>s K-Series,” as used herein, refers to open web, parallel chord, load-carrying members suitable for the direct support of floors and roof decks in buildings, utilizing hot-rolled or cold formed steel, including cold-formed steel whose yield strength* has been attained by cold working. K-Series <strong>Joist</strong>s shall be designed in accordance with these specifications to support the uniformly distributed loads given in the Standard Load Tables for Open Web Steel <strong>Joist</strong>s, K-Series, attached hereto. The KCS <strong>Joist</strong> is a K-Series <strong>Joist</strong> which is provided to address the problem faced by specifying professionals when trying to select joists to support uniform plus concentrated loads or other non uniform loads. The design of chord sections for K-Series <strong>Joist</strong>s shall be based on a yield strength of 50 ksi (345 MPa). The design of web sections for K-Series <strong>Joist</strong>s shall be based on a yield strength of either 36 ksi (250 MPa) or 50 ksi (345 MPa). Steel used for K-Series <strong>Joist</strong>s chord or web sections shall have a minimum yield strength determined in accordance with one of the procedures specified in Section 3.2, which is equal to the yield strength assumed in the design. * The term “Yield Strength” as used herein shall designate the yield level of a material as determined by the applicable method outlined in paragraph 13.1 “Yield Point”, and in paragraph 13.2 “Yield Strength”, of ASTM A370, Standard Test Methods and Definitions for Mechanical Testing of Steel Products, or as specified in paragraph 3.2 of this specification. Standard Specifications and Load Tables, Open Web Steel <strong>Joist</strong>s, K-Series, Steel <strong>Joist</strong> Institute - Copyright, 2002 SECTION 3. MATERIALS 3.1 STEEL The steel used in the manufacture of chord and web sections shall conform to one of the following ASTM Specifications: • Carbon Structural Steel, ASTM A36/A36M. • High-Strength, Low-Alloy Structural Steel, ASTM A242/A242M. • High-Strength Carbon-Manganese Steel of Structural Quality, ASTM A529/A529M, Grade 50. • High-Strength Low-Alloy Columbium-Vanadium Structural Steel , ASTM A572/A572M, Grade 50. • High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel with 50 ksi (345 MPa) minimum Yield Point to 4 inches (100 mm) thick, ASTM A588/A588M. • Steel, Sheet and Strip, High-Strength, Low-Alloy, Hot- Rolled and Cold-Rolled, with Improved Corrosion Resistance, ASTM A606. • Steel, Sheet, Cold-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High- Strength Low-Alloy and High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability, ASTM A1008/A1008M. • Steel, Sheet and Strip, Hot-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy and High-Strength Low- Alloy with Improved Formability, ASTM A1011/A1011M. or shall be of suitable quality ordered or produced to other than the listed specifications, provided that such material in the state used for final assembly and manufacture is weldable and is proved by tests performed by the producer or manufacturer to have the properties specified in Section 3.2. 3.2 MECHANICAL PROPERTIES The yield strength used as a basis for the design stresses prescribed in Section 4 shall be either 36 ksi (250 MPa) or 50 ksi (345 MPa). Evidence that the steel furnished meets or exceeds the design yield strength shall, if requested, be provided in the form of an affidavit or by witnessed or certified test reports. For material used without consideration of increase in yield strength resulting from cold forming, the specimens shall be taken from as-rolled material. In the case of material, the mechanical properties which conform to the requirements of one of the listed specifications, test specimens and procedure shall conform to those of such specifications and to ASTM A370. 22
