American Iron and Steel Institute Publishes 5 Cold-Formed Steel Test Standards 

The American Iron and Steel Institute has published five cold-formed steel test standards. Three of the test standards have been updated, and two are new:

  • AISI S903-20, Test Standard for Determining the Uniform and Local Ductility of Carbon and Low-Alloy Steels (updated)
  • AISI S915-20, Test Standard for Determining the Strength and Deformation Behavior of Through-the-Web Punchout Cold-Formed Steel Wall Stud Bridging Connectors (updated)
  • AISI S916-20, Test Standard for Determining the Strength and Stiffness of Cold-Formed Steel Framed Nonstructural Interior Partition Walls Sheathed With Gypsum Board (updated)
  • AISI S923-20, Test Standard for Determining the Strength and Stiffness of Shear Connections of Composite Members (new)
  • AISI S924-20, Test Standard for Determining the Effective Flexural Stiffness of Composite Members (new)

The test standards were developed by AISI’s Committee on Specifications for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members and are available for free download at www.aisistandards.org.
