Criteria - Steel Design Codes

Selecting Criteria > Steel Design Codes opens the Column/Base Plate Steel Design Codes dialog, with the current column and base plate steel design code selections.

Select the appropriate Column Steel Code or Base Plate Steel Code option for your design. These may be different specifications.
