Introductory paragraph: This set of specifications covers the design of structural components made from circular, square, and rectangular tubes as well as circular, square, and rectangular bar stock as they occur in machines. These specifications have been compiled for educational purposes and contain accepted design procedures as given in the civil and mechanical engineering literature. These specifications do not include design criteria for channels, angles, and I-sections and do not apply to structural components that experience a large number of stress reversals during their lifetime. The information on member dimensions and materials is provided to simulate the design process and is not all inclusive.
