Deflection Limit For Steel Beams

This document outlines deflection limits for structural steel according to limit state theory. It provides deflection limits for beams due to unfactored imposed loads based on length or span, as well as horizontal deflection limits for columns due to unfactored imposed and wind loads based on height or story height. Deflection limits are also given for crane gantry girders under static wheel loads or crane surge.
