Abstract
Covers the detailed design of beams, columns and trusses in accordance with BS 5950-5:1987. Worked examples illustrate the practical design of beams and columns with different loading and boundary conditions, and have been selected to be representative of members used in a real building. Connections between the various members are also designed and detailed in order to demonstrate the use of these sections in practice. Section properties are tabulated for generic C sections, which are representative of those available from a range of manufacturers. Worked examples of the calculation of these properties are included in Appendix A.
