Expected to remain current until at least 2026, this manual supports the design of steelwork building structures to BS EN 1993-1-1:2005, BS EN 1993-1-8:2005, BS EN 1993-1-10:2005, and the design of composite floors to BS EN 1994-1-1:2004 (Eurocode 3) for UK construction.
It can be purchased as an individual title, or as part of a seven-volume Eurocode package.
The manual focuses on low to medium rise multi-storey building structures that do not rely on the bending resistance of columns for their overall stability, and offers:
-
Guidance on structural form, framing and bracing
-
Advice on the selection of floors, roofing and cladding systems
-
Advice on deflection, thermal expansion, fire and corrosion protection
-
Procedures for designing different types of structure and structural elements
Nationally Determined Parameters from the UK National Annex have informed the design formulae presented.
