May 26, 2022 #1 krus1972 Structural Jan 21, 2004 66 0 0 US Does anyone know where I can find a copy of ANSI A58.1 - 1955? I already have the 1972 and the 1982 version of this standard. I am looking for a copy of the 1955 version and NO one seems to be selling a copy. Any information would be well appreciated.

May 26, 2022 #2 JStephen Mechanical Aug 25, 2004 8,602 0 36 US The ANSI standard dates from 1972. The older one was apparently American Standards Association, ASA, 58.1 I do find the 1945 version online: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg...VPUB-C13-31061e9f4ea025b34a27c3668dafb6cc.pdfThe older AISC steel manuals I have show recommended or minimum live loads based on A58.1, but I don't have one that references the 1955 specifically.
