Steel Buildings in Europe - Single Storey Steel Buildings Simple Connections




SUMMARY

This guide is a Model Construction Specification to be used in contract documents for a typical construction project of a single-storey building. Its main objectives are to achieve greater uniformity in steelwork contract specifications in Europe and to provide a guide to specification of appropriate standards for the design, fabrication and erection of steelwork structures for buildings.

It deals with structural steelwork designed in accordance with applicable parts of the Eurocode Standards, to be executed in accordance with applicable parts of EN 1090. All the relevant Sections of the model specification are included in an appendix that can be directly copied and used in contracts, with any additional project-specific information that may be required.

1 INTRODUCTION

This guide is a Model Construction Specification to be used in contract documents for a typical construction project of a single-storey building. Its main objectives are:

 To achieve greater uniformity in steelwork contract specifications in Europe.

 To provide a guide to specification of appropriate standards for the design, fabrication and erection of steelwork structures for buildings.

It is essential that the designer and the steelwork contractor receive, on time, all information necessary for them to carry out the contract. This Model Construction Specification gives guidance on the items and information that should be included in the Project Specification.
