Design of Tension and Combined Loading Members

To ensure a higher level of safety by factoring in uncertainties in loads and material strengths

ASD is based on limiting stresses to a fraction of the material's yield strength to ensure structural safety.

AISC load combinations include various load types such as dead load, live load, wind load, and seismic load.
