BS 8110 is a withdrawn British Standard for the design and construction of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. It is based on limit state design principles. Although used for most civil engineering and building structures, bridges and water-retaining structures are covered by separate standards ( BS 5400 and BS 8007).
BS 5544 for anti-bandit glazing (glazing resistant to manual attack) BS 5750 for quality management, the ancestor of ISO 9000; BS 5759 Specification for webbing load restraint assemblies for use in surface transport; BS 5837 for protection of trees during construction work; BS 5839 for fire detection and alarm systems for buildings
British Standards (BS) are the standards produced by the BSI Group which is incorporated under a royal charter and which is formally designated as the national standards body (NSB) for the UK. [1] The BSI Group produces British Standards under the authority of the charter, which lays down as one of the BSI's objectives to: [ 2 ]

The Eurocodes therefore replace the existing national building codes published by national standard bodies (e.g. BS 5950), although many countries had a period of co-existence. [3] Additionally, each country is expected to issue a National Annex to the Eurocodes which will need referencing for a particular country (e.g.
Concrete cover, in reinforced concrete, is the least distance between the surface of embedded reinforcement and the outer surface of the concrete (ACI 130). The concrete cover depth can be measured with a cover meter.
BS 5400-9.2:1983 Steel, concrete and composite bridges. Bridge bearings. Specification for materials, manufacture and installation of bridge bearings. (This part of standard is partially replaced by BS EN 1337-2 , BS EN 1337-3 , BS EN 1337-5 and BS EN 1337-7 ) BS 5400-10:1980 Steel, concrete and composite bridges. Code of practice for fatigue.
In the Eurocode series of European standards (EN) related to construction, Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design (abbreviated EN 1997 or, informally, EC 7) describes how to design geotechnical structures, using the limit state design philosophy. It is published in two parts; "General rules" and "Ground investigation and testing".
