AISC Design Guide 15: Rehabilitation and Retrofit Guide * Why it fits: This is the "bible" for structural modifications. It provides reference data for historical steel shapes (crucial if you’re modifying an old site) and gives manual calculation methods for strengthening existing members.

AISC Design Guide 16: Flush and Extended Multiple-Row Moment End-Plate Connections
Why it fits: Often, small new installations involve adding platforms or supports. This guide is excellent for manual verification of bolted connections.

SCI P178: Design for Construction (Steel Construction Institute)
Why it fits: It focuses on the practicalities of site-installed steel and how design decisions affect small-scale buildability.

Hope these would help.
