The Handbook supports the previously released NASH Standard for Residential and Low-Rise Steel Framing Part 1: Design Criteria.  It covers the structural design of floor, wall, roof and bracing systems as well as assisting with the design of connections, testing structures, durability, fabrication and construction practices.  Design tables and manufacturers testing data are included for connections. 

The NASH Handbook and the NASH Standard Part 1 do not include steel framing span tables and related information; this will be included in two new standards currently being developed by NASH - Part 2 Span Tables for non cyclonic areas and Part 3 Span Tables for cyclonic areas.
