Scope

1.1 General
This Standard provides rules and requirements for the design, fabrication, and erection of steel structures. The design is based on limit states. The term "steel structures" refers to structural members and frames that consist primarily of structural steel components, including the detail parts, welds, bolts, or other fasteners required in fabrication and erection.

This Standard also applies to structural steel components in structures framed in other materials. The clauses related to fabrication and erection serve to show that design is inextricably a part of the design-fabrication-erection sequence and cannot be considered in isolation. For matters concerning standard practice pertinent to the fabrication and erection of structural steel not covered in this Standard, see Annex A.

1.2 Requirements
Requirements for steel structures such as bridges, antenna towers, offshore structures, and cold-formed steel structural members are given in other CSA Group Standards.

1.3 Application
This Standard applies unconditionally to steel structures, except that supplementary rules or requirements might be necessary for
a) unusual types of construction
b) mixed systems of construction
c) steel structures that:
i) have great height or spans
ii) are required to be movable or be readily dismantled
iii) are exposed to severe environmental conditions
iv) are exposed to severe loads such as those resulting from vehicle impact or explosion
v) are required to satisfy aesthetic, architectural, or other requirements of a non-structural nature
vi) employ materials or products not listed in Clause 5
vii) have other special features that could affect the design, fabrication, or erection
d) tanks, stacks, other platework structures, poles, and piling
e) crane-supporting structures

1.4 Other standards
The use of other standards for the design, fabrication, erection, and/or inspection of members or parts of steel structures is neither warranted nor acceptable except where specifically directed in this Standard. The design formulas provided in this Standard may be supplemented by a rational design based on theory, analysis, and engineering practice acceptable to the regulatory authority, provided that nominal margins (or factors) of safety are at least equal to those intended in the provisions of this Standard. The substitution of other standards or criteria for fabrication, erection, and/or inspection is expressly prohibited unless specifically directed in this Standard.
