Steel Building Design Concise Eurocodes.
Concise Eurocodes In Accordance With Eurocode and The UK National Annexes
This publication provides a concise compilation of selected rules in the Eurocode, together with relevant non-contradictory
complementary information, that relate to the design of common forms of steel building in the UK.
The basis of structural design is briefly reviewed and guidance is given on the principle actions and combinations of actions that need to be considered in orthodox building structures. Rules from BS EN 1993-1-1 for global analysis, bending and axial resistance are presented.
The requirements for toughness against brittle fracture as presented in PD 6695-1-10 are given. Design rules for simple bolted and welded connections, from BS EN 1993-1-8 are presented.
The outline rules for composite construction are summarized;
it is assumed that software will be used for design of beams and composite slabs.
The appendices include guidance on selection of most critical combination of actions, simplified expressions for interaction factors for combined bending and axial force, and a simplified approach for lateral torsional buckling resistance of unrestrained lengths of beams.
