Tech Note FC101-22: Design of Cold-Formed Steel Rim Track
Summary: Cold-formed steel floor, roof, soffit, and ceiling joists are widely used in commercial applications. End of the joist rim track is an important component of many floor/roof/ceiling/soffit systems used to transfer load from the joist to another component of the structure. This Technical Note provides an overview of different rim track applications and how each is designed.

Tech Note J100-11: Cold-Formed Steel Floor Joists
Summary: Cold-formed steel (CFS) joists are becoming very popular where non-combustible material and long unsupported spans are required in design. The purpose of this Technical Note is to provide a review and summary of the AISI design requirements for cold-formed steel floor joists.
This Technical Note updates and replaces LGSEA Technical Note 552
