ANSI A58.1-1955 - Minimum Design Live Loads 1

[krus1972]

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.

The ANSI standard dates from 1972.
The older one was apparently American Standards Association, ASA, 58.1
I do find the 1945 version online:

The 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.

I picked up the pdf back in 2017 from IHS marketplace. Not sure if it's still available, but here's the live load table.

Not sure if this is a complete copy

All I know is P/A and Mc/I

Thanks for all the helpful links and info. Does anyone know if this document was released before the 1945 version?
