Steel Building Design: Worked Examples – Open Sections (SCI P364)
Author: Steel Construction Institute | Size: 3.4 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Steel Construction Institute | Year: 2009 | pages: 225 | ISBN: 978-1-85942-183-3
This publication presents twenty design examples to illustrate the use of Eurocodes 3 and 4 for the design of structural open section members and connections. The examples all use the Nationally Determined Parameter values recommended in the UK National Annexes.
While preparing the examples for this publication, the emphasis has been to illustrate the design process in accordance with the Eurocodes and not necessarily to reproduce practical situations. Other solutions may be equally acceptable to those given. No consideration has been given to the influence of factors related to erection and fabrication; the consideration of these factors and the standardisation of sizes may well lead to solutions with better overall
economy than those given.
All the design examples assume the use of either S275 or S355 steel that complies with EN 10025-2.
In addition to the design of simple structural members, examples are included for simple connections used in buildings. Design guidance for simple connections will be given in SCI publication P358 Joints in steel construction:
Simple connection in accordance with Eurocode 3(due to be published in 2010).
Where a reference is made to P363 or the “Blue Book” this refers to Steel building design: Design data. In accordance with the Eurocodes and the UK
National Annexes.
In the examples, references are made to Eurocode Parts and to product standards. The Eurocode Parts and most of the product standards were prepared initially by CEN and all their internal references are made using the ‘EN’ designations. However, all these standards are published in the UK under a ‘BS EN’ designation; that designation has been used.
References to clauses introduced in the National Annex are distinguished by their NA prefix, for example, as NA.2.3. Unless otherwise stated, the clause and table numbers given in the right-hand margin of the worked examples refer to the Eurocode Part specified at the start
of each example.
Reference is made in some design examples to non-contradictory complementary information (NCCI). Such information might provide additional guidance to designers but care must be taken not to use any guidance that would conflict with the Eurocodes.
One instance where NCCI is needed is in determining the non-dimensional slenderness LT for lateral torsional buckling, which EN 1993-1-1 states may be derived from the elastic critical moment Mcr, although no method is given for determining the value of Mcr. Sources of NCCI for Mcr include:
Formulae in text books
Software, such as ‘LTBeam’ (available from the CTICM website)
Alternatively, a conservative simplified method for determining LT directly is given in SCI publication P362 Steel building design: Concise Eurocodes.

Steel Building Design: Worked Examples for Students (SCI P376)
Author: The Steel Construction Institute | Size: 2.5 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: The Steel Construction Institute | Year: 2008 | pages: 105 | ISBN: 978-1-85942-185-7
This publication offers a general overview of the design of steel framed buildings to the structural Eurocodes and includes a set of worked examples showing the design of structural elements within a notional building. It does not present structural theory or explain detailed design rules. It is intended to be of particular help in undergraduate teaching, although it will also provide guidance to practising designers who want to become acquainted with design to the Eurocodes.
The text discusses the structure of the Eurocode system and the sections contained within a Eurocode Part. It introduces the terminology, and the conventions used for axes and
symbols. The document introduces the contents of EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) and EN 1994 (Eurocode 4) that relate to the design of structural steelwork and steel and composite
structures respectively.
The worked examples have all been evaluated using the values of parameters given in the Eurocodes. The UK Nationally Determined Parameters have not been used.
The publication has been produced with the assistance of structural design lecturers, who have been responsible for writing and checking the majority of the worked examples
presented in Section 6.

Author: James Jonathan | Size: 608 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Manufacturers’ Health & Safety Association | Year: 2006 | pages: 60
The Steel Erection Safety Committee was formed as a result of an injury incident where two ironworkers were seriously injured and one ironworker, James Jonathan (Smitty) Smith, was killed while erecting steel.
Committee members include representatives from industry, employers, the Ironworkers Union, and Alberta Workplace Health and Safety among others. The main purpose of the committee is to develop and communicate industry recommended practices for the safe erection of structural steel in the construction industry.
This booklet fulfills that objective and is published to honour the memory of James Jonathan (Smitty) Smith.

This British Standard gives recommendations for the control of noise in and around buildings, and suggests appropriate criteria and limits for different situations. These criteria and limits are primarily intended to guide the design of new or refurbished buildings undergoing a change of use, rather than to assess the effect of changes in the external noise level. This standard covers room acoustics for simple situations, but not the design of buildings where the acoustics are critical, such as auditoria.
This code of practice does not cover vibration control, except where it is evident in the form of radiated sound.
Recommendations for the control of noise in and around buildings and suggestions for appropriate criteria and limits for different situations. Room acoustics for simple situations is covered, but the design of buildings where the acoustics are critical, such as auditoria, is outside the scope.

Introduction to Engineering Statistics and Six Sigma: Statistical Quality Control and Design of Experiments and Systems
Author: Theodore T. Allen | Size: 6.4 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | ISBN: 1852339551
Many have heard that six sigma methods are necessary to survive, let alone thrive, in today’s competitive markets, but are not really sure what the methods are or how or when to use them.
Introduction to Engineering Statistics and Six Sigma contains precise descriptions of all of the many related methods and details case studies showing how they have been applied in engineering and business to achieve millions of dollars of savings. Specifically, the methods introduced include many kinds of design of experiments (DOE) and statistical process control (SPC) charting approaches, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), formal optimization, genetic algorithms, gauge reproducibility and repeatability (R&R), linear regression, neural nets, simulation, quality function deployment (QFD) and Taguchi methods. A major goal of the book is to help the reader to determine exactly which methods to apply in which situation and to predict how and when the methods might not be effective.
Illustrative examples are provided for all the methods presented and exercises based on case studies help the reader build associations between techniques and industrial problems. A glossary of acronyms provides familiarity with six sigma terminology and solutions to homework and practice exams are included.
