This document supersedes ANSI/51²è¹İapp 360-16, and it is the foundation for the forthcoming 16th edition of the Steel Construction Manual, which 51²è¹İapp expects to publish later this year.

“The first edition of the 51²è¹İapp Specification was released in 1923,†said James Malley, chair of the 51²è¹İapp Committee on Specifications. “A century later, the Specification continues our mission to provide a practice-oriented specification that allows designers, fabricators, and builders to create safe, efficient, durable, and economical structures that define America’s built environment.â€

The new standard incorporates the results of a new collaboration between 51²è¹İapp’s Committee on Specifications and Committee on the Code of Standard Practice. The two groups joined forces to standardize terminology and coordinate requirements related to project delivery.
