Rcsc 2010 conference program

Duane Miller has been selected to receive the Robert P. The winners will be recognized during the conference awards presentation and opening keynote on Wednesday, April 13, beginning at p.

The Robert P. Duane K. Miller , P. Stupp Award. For more than 40 years, Miller has worked tirelessly to educate the world about structural steel welding, and he is recognized as the top authority on the design of welded connections. In he received the T. John W. Nolan of Steel Dynamics, Inc. In addition to his contributions to the AISC Board of Directors, Nolan has been instrumental in educating AISC about what other trade groups and steel companies are doing in relation to trade policy and in acting as a conduit for information and coordination between groups.

Gregory G. Deierlein , Ph. For more than a decade, Deierlein has served as director of the J. Blue Earthquake Engineering Center, teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in the design of steel structures, analysis and earthquake engineering. He has led major collaborative teams involving researchers from the U.

Geoffrey L. Kulak , Ph. Kulak is a recognized authority on the behavior of welded and bolted connections, fatigue of fabricated steel members and member stability. He was professor of civil engineering for nearly 30 years at the University of Alberta, where he now serves as professor emeritus.

For more than two decades he served as an officer of RCSC in several different positions, and he has written and presented numerous RCSC and AISC seminars on bolting that have been well received as both practical and understandable. James A. Stori , P. In addition to his many years of service on the AISC Board of Directors including a stint as chair , he has been crucial to the advancement of several programs.

Under his leadership, NASCC: The Steel Conference has more than doubled in size and garnered a reputation for the quality of its engineering and fabricator programs. However, in cases where major work is involved cutting or removal of welded members from a welded assembly, modification of design, deviation from critical dimensions, etc.

When material is short of the minimum required length, welded splices or deposited weld metal—when applied with appropriate welding procedures and specified material—should be permitted. However, the approval of the SER is required in such cases. Generally, mislocated fastener holes are not detrimental to the strength of a member if the remaining effective net section is adequate for the loads.

As such, they may be left open or filled with bolts. If required, mislocated holes can be structurally repaired in accordance with Clause 5. Attention should be paid to the Commentary to Clause 5. The process involves considerable gouging and welding, and therefore considerable heat input. As with all repairs, the benefits of the repair should be carefully weighed against the potential problems that the repair itself could cause.

Plug welding of mislocated holes is not an acceptable structural repair. If a bolt hole is mislocated by a small amount—say, less than a bolt diameter—it is often possible to adjust the connection material to accommodate the error. When detail parts are placed in error, minor mislocations should be investigated to determine if relocation is necessary. When relocation is necessary, such as when dimensions are critical, the error is major or the incorrectly placed part is visually unacceptable under an AESS requirement, the incorrectly placed part should be removed.
