Abstract
Covers the design of braced, steel-framed multi-storey buildings, and offers guidance on the structural design of the superstructure. Detailed guidance is given on the application of the frame stability checks specified in BS 5950-1:2000, and how the Standard directs that any significant second-order effects may be allowed for. Details are given for the common floor systems used in most multi-storey structures, providing typical framing layouts, typical member sizes and construction depths.
