What Cleat Compression Member AISC 360 Calculation — Steel Cleat Excel calculates

Cleat Compression Member AISC 360 Calculation — Steel Cleat Excel is an Excel-native engineering calculation tool built by 3D-LABS for structural, civil, and construction engineers designing buildings, foundations, pipe racks, silos, and infrastructure. It is used for sizing structural members, checking connections, designing foundations, and verifying seismic and wind load response. Every input is labelled and every output is traceable — the sheet is designed to be checkable, not a black box.

Codes and standards followed

Cleat Compression Member AISC 360 Calculation — Steel Cleat Excel follows AISC 360. Each formula in the spreadsheet is cross-referenced to the specific code clause it implements — you can trace any calculation back to the underlying standard, which is essential for design review and regulatory sign-off.

If your project requires a different code base (e.g. converting an IS-code sheet to an ASME basis), we can produce a code-variant edition on request. Contact info@3d-labs.com for a variant quote.

What is included in your download

• The Excel calculation file (.xlsx) — fully unlocked formulas, cell-level comments, and a clear input/output layout.
• A sample worked example — realistic inputs plus expected outputs so you can validate the spreadsheet against a known case.
• User notes (PDF) — assumptions, code clauses referenced, and edge-case guidance.
• Revision history — every update to the spreadsheet is logged so you know what changed and when.
• Email support — reply within 24 hours (Monday to Saturday, IST) for questions about the spreadsheet or its use.
