# Steel drawing abbreviations — default legend
|
|
9
|
+
|
|
10
|
+
## What this is
|
|
11
|
+
|
|
12
|
+
A reusable **fallback legend** of the standard abbreviations, note conventions, and steel-shape
|
|
13
|
+
designations that appear on the General Notes / legend sheet (usually `S-001` / `S-100`) of most
|
|
14
|
+
**US (AISC, imperial)** structural sets. These are an industry convention — largely identical from
|
|
15
|
+
project to project — so they fill the gap when a set does not ship its own abbreviations sheet, or
|
|
16
|
+
when only some sheets are provided.
|
|
17
|
+
|
|
18
|
+
The full glossary lives in **`references/standard-us-abbreviations.md`** (abbreviations A–Z, the
|
|
19
|
+
structural-steel shape table, the high-value note conventions for takeoff, and a marks-vs-abbreviations
|
|
20
|
+
warning). Keep this SKILL.md lean; load the reference when an actual lookup is needed.
|
|
21
|
+
|
|
22
|
+
## When to consult it
|
|
23
|
+
|
|
24
|
+
- A structural plan, section, or **General Note** uses an abbreviation or code that is not spelled
|
|
25
|
+
out on the supplied sheets, and its meaning is needed to read geometry or metadata correctly
|
|
26
|
+
(e.g. a "T.O.S. = 16'-6" UON" note, a "TYP" profile, an `(E)` member).
|
|
27
|
+
- The **steel reader** (`floless-app-steel-takeoff`) or the **guide** (`floless-app-steel-model`) is
|
|
28
|
+
learning a set and the user did **not** provide the abbreviations/legend sheet — use this as the
|
|
29
|
+
default while still reading the rest of the set.
|
|
30
|
+
- A profile designation needs decoding (what `HSS6X6X3/8`, `WT`, `C`, `MC`, `PIPE-XX` mean and which
|
|
31
|
+
ones carry their weight in the name vs. need an AISC table).
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
## How to use it
|
|
34
|
+
|
|
35
|
+
1. **Read the project legend first.** If the set HAS an abbreviations sheet or a note that defines the
|
|
36
|
+
code, use *that* — this file is only the fallback. The project's own definition always wins.
|
|
37
|
+
2. **Look up the code** in `references/standard-us-abbreviations.md` (grep the abbreviation, e.g.
|
|
38
|
+
`grep -i 'TOS' references/standard-us-abbreviations.md`).
|
|
39
|
+
3. **Respect context over the table.** Several codes are context-dependent (`WT` = WEIGHT or a tee
|
|
40
|
+
shape; `PT` = POST-TENSIONED / PRESSURE-TREATED / POINT). Choose the structurally sensible meaning;
|
|
41
|
+
if it is genuinely ambiguous, flag it as an RFI rather than guess.
|
|
42
|
+
4. **Do not expand marks.** `MF` / `BF` / `D1` / `C1` / `B12` are project member/frame marks resolved
|
|
43
|
+
from the frame elevations and schedules — never from this glossary (see the reference's
|
|
44
|
+
"Marks vs abbreviations" section).
|
|
45
|
+
5. **Mind the region.** This is the US/AISC legend. For EU (EN) or UK (BS) sets, defer to the project
|
|
46
|
+
legend and the region-specific detailer agent (`steel-detailer-eu` / `steel-detailer-uk`); the
|
|
47
|
+
shape designations especially differ.

# Standard US structural-steel drawing abbreviations & symbols (default legend)
|

2
|
+
|
|
3
|
+
These are the **de-facto standard abbreviations** that appear on the General Notes / legend sheet
|
|
4
|
+
(usually `S-001` / `S-100`) of most **US (AISC, imperial)** structural sets. They are an industry
|
|
5
|
+
convention, not any one firm's property, so they serve as a **fallback default** when a drawing set
|
|
6
|
+
does not include its own abbreviations/legend sheet (or only ships partial sheets).
|
|
7
|
+
|
|
8
|
+
**Rules of use (read before applying any expansion):**
|
|
9
|
+
- **The project's own legend ALWAYS wins.** If the set has an abbreviations sheet or a plan/general
|
|
10
|
+
note that defines a code, use *that* meaning — never override it with this list.
|
|
11
|
+
- **Context can override.** The same code means different things by context (e.g. `WT` = WEIGHT or a
|
|
12
|
+
structural-tee shape; `PT` = POST-TENSIONED or PRESSURE-TREATED or POINT). Pick the meaning that
|
|
13
|
+
fits the structural context; if genuinely ambiguous, flag it (RFI) rather than guess.
|
|
14
|
+
- **Region differs.** This is the US/AISC set. EU (EN) and UK (BS) sets use different shape
|
|
15
|
+
designations and some different abbreviations — defer those to the project legend and the
|
|
16
|
+
region-specific detailer agent (`steel-detailer-eu` / `steel-detailer-uk`).
|
|
17
|
+
- **Marks are NOT abbreviations.** Member/frame *marks* like `MF`, `BF`, `D1`, `C1`, `B12` are
|
|
18
|
+
project-specific labels resolved from the frame elevations / schedules — not from this glossary.
|
|
19
|
+

## Structural steel shape designations
|
|
236
|
+
|
|
237
|
+
How a profile label decodes (the label sits on/near the member centerline, usually mid-span):
|
|
238
|
+
|
|
239
|
+
| Designation | Shape |
|
|
240
|
+
|-------------|-------|
|
|
241
|
+
| `W` | Wide-flange (W-shape) — e.g. `W16X26` |
|
|
242
|
+
| `M` | Miscellaneous I-shape |
|
|
243
|
+
| `S` | American Standard (S-shape / "I-beam") |
|
|
244
|
+
| `HP` | Bearing pile (HP-shape) |
|
|
245
|
+
| `C` | American Standard Channel |
|
|
246
|
+
| `MC` | Miscellaneous Channel |
|
|
247
|
+
| `L` | Angle (equal/unequal leg) — e.g. `L4X4X1/4` |
|
|
248
|
+
| `WT` / `MT` / `ST` | Structural Tee (cut from W / M / S) |
|
|
249
|
+
| `HSS` | Hollow Structural Section (rectangular/square/round) — e.g. `HSS6X6X3/8` |
|
|
250
|
+
| `PIPE` | Standard pipe; `PIPE-X` extra-strong; `PIPE-XX` double-extra-strong |
|
|
251
|
+
| `TS` | Tube Steel (older designation for HSS) |
|
|
252
|
+
| `PL` | Plate — e.g. `PL1/2X8` |
|
|
253
|
+
|
|
254
|
+
**Reading the size numbers:**
|
|
255
|
+
- **W/M/S/HP/C/MC and WT/MT/ST:** the trailing number after the `X` IS the weight in **lb/ft (plf)** —
|
|
256
|
+
no table needed. `W16X26` = nominal depth **16"** × **26 lb/ft**; `WT6X25` (a tee cut from a W) =
|
|
257
|
+
**25 lb/ft**; `C12X20.7` = **20.7 lb/ft**. (Tees inherit weight-based naming from their parent
|
|
258
|
+
W/M/S shape.)
|
|
259
|
+
- **HSS / PIPE / L / PL:** the numbers are **dimensions**, not the weight (e.g. `HSS6X6X3/8` =
|
|
260
|
+
6"×6"×3/8" wall, `L4X4X1/4` = 4"×4"×1/4" leg) — look the weight up in an AISC shapes table
|
|
261
|
+
(or via the `steel-detailer-us` agent).

## Note conventions most useful to a takeoff
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
When reading the General Notes and plan notes, these drive member geometry/metadata directly:
|
|
268
|
+
|
|
269
|
+
- **`TYP`** — a value/detail shown once applies to all like conditions. A "TYP" profile or spacing in
|
|
270
|
+
the notes is the **default** for unlabeled members of that kind.
|
|
271
|
+
- **`TOS` / `TOC` / `TOF` / `BOS`** — top/bottom-of-steel/concrete/footing elevations. A plan default
|
|
272
|
+
TOS ("ALL STEEL T.O.S. = 16'-6" UON") sets every member's elevation unless a local callout overrides.
|
|
273
|
+
- **`UON` / `UNO`** — the stated value holds everywhere *unless* a local note says otherwise. Treat a
|
|
274
|
+
"TYP … UON" note as the fallback and watch for the exceptions.
|
|
275
|
+
- **`EQ`** — equally-spaced members between two references (no explicit dimension).
|
|
276
|
+
- **`SIM`** — a detail is repeated similarly elsewhere (mirror/rotate as needed).
|
|
277
|
+
- **`(N)` / `(E)`** — new vs existing. `(E)` members are frequently **out of the new-steel takeoff**;
|
|
278
|
+
confirm against line weight/scope before counting them.
|
|
279
|
+
- **Connection-type words in notes** — `MOMENT`, `DRAG`, `SHEAR`, `BRACED`, `PINNED`, `FIXED` name the
|
|
280
|
+
connection type at member ends; feed them into the member-end connection note + the connection
|
|
281
|
+
library (type → design detail# → platform component).
|
|
282
|
+
|
|

## Marks vs abbreviations (do not confuse)
|
|
286
|
+
|
|
287
|
+
A *mark* identifies a specific member or frame and is defined **by the project's schedules/elevations**,
|
|
288
|
+
not by this glossary:
|
|
289
|
+
|
|
290
|
+
- `MF` / `BF` — Moment Frame / Braced Frame member marks (resolved from the Frame Elevation sheets;
|
|
291
|
+
the AISC size comes from the moment-frame schedule, not from "MF").
|
|
292
|
+
- `D1`, `D2`, `BR1` — brace/diagonal marks.
|
|
293
|
+
- `C1`, `B12`, `G3` — column/beam/girder marks keyed to a schedule.
|
|
294
|
+
|
|
295
|
+
Never expand a mark using this abbreviation list. Resolve it from the frame elevations / column &
|
|
296
|
+
beam schedules, and if unresolved, leave it as an RFI.
