BS 8515:2009 Rainwater harvesting systems – Code of practice

This British Standard gives recommendations on the design, installation, testing and maintenance of rainwater harvesting systems supplying non-potable water in the UK. It covers systems supplying water for domestic water uses (in residential, commercial, industrial or public premises) that do not require potable water quality such as laundry, WC flushing and garden watering. It does not cover systems supplying water for drinking, food preparation and cooking, dishwashing and personal hygiene. NOTE Although this Standard does not give specific recommendations relating to the use of rainwater for fire suppression or commercial irrigation, these applications are not excluded. It covers individual and communal systems, and those providing stormwater control. It does not cover water butts. It also does not cover product design for specific system components. It applies to retrofitting and new build.

COMPOSITE BRIDGE DESIGN FOR SMALL AND MEDIUM SPANS

This Design Guide provides all necessary information about the construction and static calculation of the superstructure of composite bridges for small and medium spans by using new innovative standard solutions.
The Design Guide includes all main topics concerning erection, construction details and the static analyses. Design charts are added to enable a fast forward pre-design. This report is based on the ECSC-Project “Composite bridge design for small and medium spans” which is shortly described later on. The results of the test programmes performed in this ECSCproject are summarised in standard solutions in this Design Guide. This Design Guide covers composite bridges with standard solutions by applying partially- and fully prefabricated slabs as well as solid slabs up to a span of 50 m. Furthermore a software has been developed to verify different kinds of constructions and enable a very fast static calculation by the practical engineer. Two examples of a single span bridge with fully prefabricated elements and a two span bridge with partially prefabricated slab are attached as tender documents including the static analyses by using the software and drawings with all details.

STEEL BUILDINGS IN EUROPE by Arcelor Mittal, Peiner Träger and Corus part 3

This document describes the connection resistance calculator, created in Excel, for typical, nominally pinned joints used in braced steel frames. It explains the scope of the workbook and lists the National Annexes and languages that are supported in the workbook. A description is given of each of the worksheets and the input information on each sheet. A screenshot of typical output is presented.

This guide provides guidance to developers of software for the design of composite beams used in multi-storey buildings, according to the Eurocodes. It covers simply supported beams connected to the concrete slab using shear studs and gives technical requirements. The ULS verifications are to be based on plastic design.

This guide is a Model Construction Specification to be used in contract documents for a typical construction project of a single-storey building. Its main objectives are to achieve greater uniformity in steelwork contract specifications in Europe and to provide a guide to specification of appropriate standards for the design, fabrication and erection of steelwork structures for buildings. It deals with structural steelwork designed in accordance with applicable parts of the Eurocode Standards, to be executed in accordance with applicable parts of EN 1090. All the relevant Sections of the model specification are included in an appendix that can be directly copied and used in contracts, with any additional project-specific information that may be required.

This publication provides an introduction to the design process for moment-resisting bolted connections in single storey steel framed buildings. It explains that the design process is complex, involving many steps to determine the resistance of individual bolt rows in the tension zone, checking whether the resistance of the bolt group has to be reduced on account of the performance of the connected elements, and evaluating the bending resistance from the tensile resistances of the rows. To simplify design, a series of design tables for standard connections are given, for eaves and apex connections in portal frames, with haunched and un-haunched rafters
