National Structural Steelwork Specification for Building Construction
Size: 2.3 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: The BCSA | Year: 2007 | pages: 76 | ISBN: 085073052X
This Specification deals with structural steelwork designed in accordance with: BS 5950-1 Structural use of steelwork in buildings: Code of practice for design: rolled and welded sections
BS EN 1993-1-1 Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures – Part 1.1: General rules and rules for buildings
It can be used for all types of building construction designed for static loading. It is not intended to be used for steelwork in dynamically loaded structures or if fatigue is a factor unless appropriate amendments are made. The Specification describes the information to be included in a Project Specification, and also covers materials, preparation of drawings, fabrication, erection and the requirements for protective treatment including standard paint coatings. Specific requirements are placed on the Steelwork Contractor and the Employer. Other requirements are allocated to the Engineer, who may not be directly a party to the steelwork contract, but may be engaged by the Employer or by the Steelwork Contractor. It should also be noted that in certain design-build contracts design responsibility is shared and in these instances the role of Engineer will have to be allocated. This Specification should be introduced into a steelwork contract by a Project Specification, the contents of which are described herein. The Project Specification should also include any additions or modifications that may be required to the National Structural Steelwork Specification by the Employer for a particular contract if the form of behaviour or other aspects of the structure are unorthodox.
