The Structural Use of Aluminium
Also Known As:
The CP 118:1969 standard provides design recommendations for the utilization of aluminium in various structures, excluding those that are covered by other standards. It specifically focuses on three primary alloys: H30, N8, and H9. Additionally, it offers guidance on six supplementary alloys and provides advice on other alloys as well.
The standard consists of sections that cover various aspects of aluminium structural applications. These sections include information on materials, loading, design, testing, fabrication, erection, and protection. Each section provides specific details and recommendations on the respective topic to ensure the proper utilization and performance of aluminium in structures.
Furthermore, the CP 118:1969 standard includes thirteen appendices, which contain additional supplementary information relevant to the structural use of aluminium. These appendices likely provide further guidance, specifications, and technical details to assist engineers and designers in understanding and implementing aluminium in their structural projects.
