    In the present research project, the graphical interface and the coding of a calculation software for the pre-design and design of steel beams and columns were carried out in accordance with the AISC 360-16 standard, through the use of a programming software and its tool guide. The software allows us to obtain pre-design sections for both beams and columns, which were verified in the design process, proven that they resist the requests to which they are exposed to the structure under analysis, all this is done by entering data such as: geometric configuration of the structure, load states and properties of the steel to be used. For the development of the software, it has been necessary to carry out a bibliographical investigation where the LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design) method is extended, for the design of steel beams and columns, which is approved by the American Institute of Steel Construction. (AISC 360-16) and the Ecuadorian Construction Standard (NEC 2015). Once the calculation method was determined, the algorithms necessary for the software coding were developed, once defined, the graphical interface of the same was elaborated. Once the development of the software was completed, a debugging of the programming code was carried out where the calculation algorithms were optimized to achieve a better and faster operation of the software. The validity of the developed program will be verified through a comparison of the results obtained through the software, manual calculations and a commercial program, obtaining an error rate of less than 0.8 percent, with which it was possible to verify that the calculation values obtained through the software developed in this research they are valid and reliable, thus achieving an optimization in the calculation time and precision in them, since being an automated software the human factor capable of committing involuntary errors during the manual process is eliminated. of calculation.
