Topic 4 - Design of Steel Structures BS en 1993

This document provides an overview of Eurocode 3, which establishes the design rules for structural steel design. It outlines the key topics covered in Eurocode 3, including the basis of structural steel design, actions on structures, design of steel structures, connections, trusses, columns, beams, and cross-section classification. The document notes some of the main differences between Eurocode 3 and BS 5950, such as the use of limit state design principles and partial safety factors. It also distinguishes between the principles and application rules in Eurocode 3.

•  the  principles  of  design,  concept  and  formulaIon  are  generally  


similar  to  BS5950  
•  the  main  differences  of  the  two  design  rules  are  only  in  the  
symbols,  terms,  safety  factors  and  limits  adopted    
•  disIncIon  is  made  between  
–  principles  which  must  be  obeyed  
–  applicaIon  rules  which  follow  the  principles  but  alternaIve  
methods  are  allowed  
•  design  capaciIes  in  EC3  are  categorised  under  cross-­‐secIon  
resistance  and  member  buckling  resistance  (based  on  structural  
behaviour    and  not  based  on  element/member)  

•  based  on  limit  state  design  principles  which  require  that  specific  
'failure'  condiIons  must  be  checked  for  both  ulImate  and  
serviceability  condiIons  
•  variability,  principally  of  acIons  and  materials,  is  accounted  for  
by  parIal  safety  factors  which  also  incorporate  a  global  margin  
of  safety  
•  EC3  incorporates  theories  in  the  first-­‐order  and  second  order  
which  consider  the  effects  of  deformaIons    
•  EC3  allows  us  to  choose  the  degree  of  accuracy  of  the  structural  
analysis  
•  allows  for  the  “advanced  analysis  approach”  in  analysis  and  
design  as  an  alternaIve  to  simplified  design  method

•  frame  imperfecIon(P-­‐D  and  P-­‐d  effect  )  to  be  included  in  the  
structural  modeling  of  frames    
•  a  comprehensive  informaIon  on  the  elasIc-­‐perfectly  plasIc  and  
elasto-­‐plasIc  methods  for  conInuous  and  semi-­‐conInuous  steel  
framing  
•  providing  classificaIon  of  the  connecIons  based  on  strength  and  
rigidity    
•  the  informaIon  on  frame  stability  is  presented  in  detailed  whilst  
the  terms  sway  and  non-­‐sway  frames  are  well  defined  

11

Distinction between principles and


application rules
(1)    The  Principles  comprise  :  
•   general  statements  and  definiIons  for  which  there  is  no  alternaIve  
•  requirements  and  analyIcal  models  for  which  no  alternaIve  is  permiZed    
(2)    The  Principles  are  idenIfied  by  the  leZer  P  following  the  paragraph  number.  
(3)    The  ApplicaIon  Rules  are  generally  recognised  rules  which  comply  with  the  
Principles  and  saIsfy  their  requirements.  
(4)    It  is  permissible  to  use  alternaIve  design  rules  different  from  the  applicaIon  
Rules  given  in  EN  1990  for  works,  provided  that  it  is  shown  that  the  alternaIve  
rules  accord  with  the  relevant  Principles  and  are  at  least  equivalent  with  regard  
to  the  structural  safety,  serviceability  and  durability  which  would  be  expected  
when  using  the  Eurocodes.

2.1  Requirements  
 
(1)  P  The  design  of  steel  structures  shall  be  in  accordance  with  the  general  rules  
given  in  EN  1990.  
 
2.2  Principles  of  limit  state  design  
 
Limit  states  -­‐  states  beyond  which  the  structure  no  longer  fulfils  the  relevant  design    
criteria  
 
UlImate  limit  states  –  states  associated  with  collapse  or  with  other  similar  forms  of  
structural  failure.  UlImate  limit  state,  concerned  with  ‘collapse’like  yielding,  
buckling  and  overturning.    
 
The  following  condiIons  should  be  considered:  
   1.  Stability:  overturning  (equilibrium)  
       2.  Strength:  including  local  and  overall  buckling  effects  where  appropriate  
 
13

Serviceability  limit  states  –  states  that  correspond  to  condiIons  


beyond  which  specified  service  requirements  for  a  structure  or  
structural  member  are  no  longer  met.  Serviceability  limit  state,  
concerned  with  ‘funcIon’:  like  deflecIon  and  vibraIon.    
 
Both  condiIons  are  associated  with  sIffness  rather  than  strength.    For  
most  buildings,  controlling  deflecIons  will  also  limit  vibraIons  
 
ParIal  safety  factors  are  applied  to  characterisIc  values  to  obtain  
design  values  
 
Suffices  k  and  d  are  used  to  signify  characterisIc  and  design  values  
respecIvely

Eurocode 3 – Design Checks


•  Design  checks  are  required  and  it  depends  on  the  type  of  
structure  
•  Frames    are  checked  for    
•  StaIc  equilibrium  
•  Frame  stability  
•  Resistance  of  cross-­‐secIons  
•  Resistance  of  members  
•  Resistance  of  joints  
•  Tension  members  need  only  checked  for  resistance  of  cross-­‐
secIons
