BS 6093:2006 Design of joints and jointing in building construction. Guide
This British Standard gives recommendations for the design of joints and the use of jointing products in building construction. Following an analysis of joint functions and of the performance of the parts to be joined, joints are classified in this standard on the basis of the movements and inaccuracies they have to accommodate. Mechanisms by which joints operate are identified and recommendations are made on the use of sealants and gaskets. Some emphasis is placed on weather resistance of joints in the external envelope of buildings.
The code does not present guidance in the form of a catalogue of proven joint designs, because the extent to which a design is appropriate to a particular use depends on circumstances specific to the building, e.g. its exposure, desired performance, durability and costs. The code therefore draws attention to matters that need consideration, in order that solutions may be developed that are appropriate.
The code does not cover:
a) rigidly connected joints (except type 1 joints, see 4.6.4.1);
b) joints within components normally made in a factory, such as those around opening lights in windows;
c) the load-bearing functions of structural joints;
d) glazing (see BS 6262);
e) joints in service pipes and ducts and their connections to appliances;
f) methods of test for joints or for jointing products.
All figures in this standard showing detailed joint designs illustrate principles in a recognizable context and are not production drawings of proven and universally applicable joints.

EN 14843:2007 Precast concrete products - Stairs
This standard gives specifications for materials, production, properties, requirements and methods of testing for precast concrete monolithic stairs, and for precast concrete elements (e.g. individual steps) used to make reinforced and/or prestressed concrete stairs.
This standard is applicable to structural stairs for indoor or outdoor use.
This standard covers precast concrete stairs and associated landings of monolithic design or constructed from individual steps supported by beams or columns. Supporting elements may include in situ concrete.
This standard covers terminology, performance criteria, verification methods, tolerances, relevant physical properties, special test methods and specific aspects of transport, erection and connection.
Geometrical properties related to functionality of stairs are not covered by this standard and can be found in National regulations or local practice.
Precast concrete stairs are classified into two main product families :
п‚ѕ monolithic stairs constructed from precast concrete components consisting of flights, landings or a combination of these. They may include vertical supporting elements ;
п‚ѕ stairs constructed from individual steps, whether load bearing or not, assembled on site with, for example, carriages or a central column.
Their shape may be straight or winding.
Stairs may incorporate parapets (on one or both sides) and landings.
Stairs may have simple bearings (e.g. on corbels, walls or beams), bolted connections or they may be connected with reinforcement and in situ concrete.
The surfaces of the precast elements may be exposed or covered by finishes.

This standard gives recommendations and guidance for unreinforced earthworks forming part of general civil engineering construction, with the exception of dams. This standard also gives recommendations and guidance for temporary excavations such as trenches and pits.
NOTE Reinforced earthworks are covered in BS 8006-1 and BS 8006-2. This document applies to earthworks classified as Geotechnical Category 1, 2 and 3 structures as defined in BS EN 1997-1:2004.

Document Name: JL79-09
Author(s): Alan H. Mattock and G. H. Gaafar
Publication: Journal Proceedings
Volume: 79
Issue: 2
Pages: 83-93
Keywords: bearing capacity; brackets; columns (supports): compressive strength; construction; corbels; loads (forces); precast concrete; reinforced concrete; reinforcing steels; strength analysis.
Date: March 1, 1982
Abstract:
Reports an analytical and experimental study of the strength of steel sections embedded in a reinforced concrete column as brackets. The bearig stress at failure in the concrete below the embedded section is related to the concrete compressive strength and the ratio of the width of the embedded section to the width of the column. Expressions are developed for the vertical load carried by the embedded section and for the maximum moment in the embedded section when the concrete below the embedded sections fails in bearing. These expressions are shown to be in good agreement with the test results reported in the paper and with other test data in the literature. It is shown that the effective width of an embedded rolled steel l-section of normal proportions is equal to its flange width.

Seismic Isolation for Designers and Structural Engineers
by
Trevor E. Kelly of Holmes Consulting Group,
R. Ivan Skinner and
Bill (W. H.) Robinson of Robinson Seismic Limited.
The seismic isolation technology helps in protecting structures from earthquake damage. This book provides both theory and practical aspects of seismic isolation technique. It is an extract of more than three decades of in-hand experience on the seismic isolation systems by the authors of the book. With the help of this book a professional can have preliminary designs of the structures in order to avoid impossible constraints and, therefore, they can check the risk analysis of the designs before hand. This publication contains 380 printed pages along with a CD having the explanatory notes, videos, Excel Data sheet and presentations related to Isolation Technique. The broad contents of the monograph are:
· Introduction
· General Features of Structures with Seismic Isolation
· Isolator Devices and Systems
· Engineering Properties of Isolators
· Isolation System Design
· Effect of Isolation on Buildings
· Seismic Isolation of Buildings and Bridges
· Applications of Seismic Isolation
· Implementation Issues
· Feasibility Assessment, Evaluation and Further Development of Seismic Isolation
