Preface

This publication was assembled for the Canadian Standards Association and contains those ASTM standards referenced in S136-94, Cold Formed Steel Structural Members. It is intended to be used as a reference tool in conjunction with CSA Standard S136-94.

The purpose of compiling the ASTM standards is to aid users of the CSA standard and not to replace S136-94, which remains the only source-specific standard on the design of cold-formed steel structural members in Canada. While the issues of the ASTM standards contained in this book are referenced by CSA, these may not be the latest editions as published by ASTM.

ASTM has defined the purpose and use of ASTM standards as representing:

“”…a common viewpoint of those parties concerned with its provisions, namely, producers, users, consumers, and general interest groups. It is intended to aid industry, government agencies, and the general public. The use of an ASTM standard is purely voluntary. It is recognized that, for certain work or in certain regions, ASTM standard specifications may be either more or less restrictive than needed. The existence of an ASTM standard does not preclude anyone from manufacturing, marketing, or purchasing products, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standard. Because ASTM standards are subject to periodic review and revision, those who use them are cautioned to obtain the latest revision.””

CSA is Canada’s largest and oldest standards-writing, certification, testing, and inspection organization. A not-for- profit association, it has been bringing representatives of industry, government, and consumers together for over 75 years to develop standards for safety and performance.
