  2. BS 8110 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BS_8110

    BS 8110 is a withdrawn British Standard for the design and construction of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures.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).

  3. Stub-girder system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stub-girder_system

    Sections show crane girder, tank below ground level, and five-foot pocket for storing "warm" reactor parts. c.a. sundberg and associates. A stub-girder system (or stub girder system) is a model of steel frame structures consisting of beams and decking, originally developed in the early 1970s in part by Joseph Colaco of Ellisor Engineers Inc..

  4. Eurocodes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocodes

    All of the EN Eurocodes relating to materials have a Part 1-1 which covers the design of buildings and other civil engineering structures and a Part 1-2 for fire design. The codes for concrete, steel, composite steel and concrete, and timber structures and earthquake resistance have a Part 2 covering design of bridges.

  5. T-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-beam

    Unlike an I-beam, a T-beam lacks a bottom flange, which carries savings in terms of materials, but at the loss of resistance to tensile forces. [5] T- beam designs come in many sizes, lengths and widths to suit where they are to be used (eg highway bridge, underground parking garage) and how they have to resist the tension, compression and shear stresses associated with beam bending in their ...

  6. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    The deflection must be considered for the purpose of the structure. When designing a steel frame to hold a glazed panel, one allows only minimal deflection to prevent fracture of the glass. The deflected shape of a beam can be represented by the moment diagram, integrated (twice, rotated and translated to enforce support conditions).

  7. List of British Standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_Standards

    BS 5950 for structural steel; BS 5975 Code of practice for temporary works procedures and the permissible stress design of falsework [14] BS 5993 Specification for cricket balls [15] BS 6008 for preparation of a liquor of tea for use in sensory tests; BS 6312 for telephone plugs and sockets

  8. Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_3:_Design_of...

    EN 1993-6 gives principles and application rules for the structural design of crane runaway beams and other crane supporting structures including columns and other member fabricated from steel. This part is intended to be used with Eurocode EN 1991 -1 and it covers overhead crane runaways inside buildings and outdoor overhead crane runaways.

  9. Steel design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_design

    The design and use of steel frames are commonly employed in the design of steel structures. More advanced structures include steel plates and shells. In structural engineering, a structure is a body or combination of pieces of the rigid bodies in space that form a fitness system for supporting loads and resisting moments.
