Capacity values stop at 6,000 and 8,000 respectively which seems to imply concrete strength maximums, but also indicates testing has not been performed in concrete strength beyond those values. Concrete design strength is typically specified to be within the capacity limits of the PAF, however 28-day compressive strength test...

Will Profis be updated to include AISC DG1 3rd Edition? Is there a projected date for this?
