Includes bibliographical references and index.

Updated with the latest revisions to British Standard BS 5950 and introducing Eurocode EC3, this manual is full of tables, analytical design information and worked examples. In 2010 the then current European national standards for building and construction were replaced by the EN Eurocodes, a set of panCoEuropean model building codes developed by the European Committee for Standardization. The Eurocodes are a series of 10 European Standards (EN 1990 EN 1999) that provide a common approach for the design of buildings, other civil engineering works and construction products. The design standards embodied in these Eurocodes will be used for all European public works and are set to become the deCofacto standard for the private sector in Europe, with probable adoption in many other countries. This classic manual on structural steelwork design was first published in 1955, since when it has sold many tens of thousands of copies worldwide. For the seventh edition of the Steel DesignersCo Manual all chapters have been comprehensively reviewed, revised to ensure they reflect current approaches and best practice, and brought in to compliance with EN 1993: Design of Steel Structures (the soCocalled Eurocode 3).
