Eurocode 3. Design of steel structures. Design of joints
Also Known As:
BS EN 1993-1-8:2005 is a standard that provides guidelines for the design of joints in steel structures. It is part of the Eurocode series, which is a set of European standards for the structural design of buildings and civil engineering works in steel.
The standard focuses on the design of joints that are primarily subjected to loading, using various steel grades such as S235, S275, S355, and S460. It covers different types of joints, including bolted joints, riveted joints, welded joints, and pins. The standard also provides guidance on the analysis of joints, such as rigid or elastic-plastic global analysis.
BS EN 1993-1-8 introduces the basis of design for joints and discusses topics such as the classification of joints, the modeling of beam-to-column joints, and joints connecting H or I sections. It is applicable to civil engineers, construction engineers, architects, site managers, suppliers of construction system parts, manufacturers of steels for construction engineering works, and welders.
