Metric version of ASD Steel Manual Formulae

[MPHenry]

Does anyone have a reference document giving the metric equivalent of the design equations used in the ASD Manual of Steel Construction?

That's a better question than I thought it would be. There was a metric version of an earlier Manual but I can't find one for the current edition.

The new thirteenth edition has metric equivalents.

As graybeach said, the 13th Ed. is dual english/metric units. The majority of the terms have been written in such a form that they can be applied to both english and metric problems (for instance the slenderness ratios are all written in terms of sqrt(E/Fy) so that the units cancel).
