ECONOMIC CONCRETE FRAME ELEMENTS
BS 8110 Pt 1:1997
The charts and data in this publication were prepared to BS 8110, Pt 1: 1985, up to and including Amendment No 4.
During production, BS 8110 Structural use of concrete: Part 1:1997 Code of practice for design and construction was
issued. This incorporated all published amendments to the 1985 version plus Draft Amendments Nos. 5 and 6. In general,
the nett effect of the changes is that slightly less reinforcement is required: preliminary studies suggest 2 to 3%
less in in-situ slabs and beams and as much as 10% less in columns. Readers should be aware that some of the tables
in the new Code have been renumbered.
The charts and data given in this publication remain perfectly valid for pre-scheme design.
