Following pioneering research in the 1940s, research into cold-formed steel intensified in the 1970s and led to numerous national European design specifications, and subsequently the preparation of Part 1-3 of Eurocode3 (EN1993-1-3) for cold-formed steel structures. Now a Euronorm, EN1993-1-3 is fully embedded in the Eurocode framework. This book serves as a reference text for design engineers using EN1993-1-3. It forms part of the suite of ECCS Eurocode Design Manuals prepared in recent years for other parts of EN1993 and other Eurocodes to aid the implementation of Eurocodes in European states. The book draws on the authors’ considerable experience with designing cold-formed steel structures, both as academics and practitioners, and strikes a balance between theory and practice. Applications of cold-formed steel have broadened over the years. Coldformed steel is now used as primary structural elements, as in steel framed residential buildings, steel storage racks, portal frames, and tubular truss and frame structures, and as secondary structural elements, as in roofing and wall systems featuring purlins, girts and corrugated steel sheeting. Additionally, integrated building systems have been developed, such as cassettes, as have stressed skin principles for designing the building envelope. The design of cold-formed steel is perceived to be challenging by many structural engineers because the thinness of the steel leads to buckling and failure modes not found in the design of hot-rolled and fabricated steel structures. Furthermore, roll-forming techniques have developed rapidly in recent decades and spawned highly optimised cross sections featuring intermediate stiffeners and complex lip stiffeners, which are not easily designed using conventional methods. The book covers the design of structural members of complex shapes and connections as well as the design of integrated structural solutions, such as cassettes, and design using stressed skin principles. The structural behaviour and design to EN1993-1-3 are explained and numerous worked examples are included to guide or enable a cross-check for structural design engineers. The final Chapter 8 deserves a special mention as it addresses the comprehensive range of considerations other than structural to be made in cold-formed steel construction, including thermal transmission and sound, serviceability, durability, sustainability and recyclability. Methods of design for single and multi-storey housing are explained in detail, concluding with a comprehensive worked example of a residential building. This book presents a landmark in the development of guidelines for the structural design of cold-formed steel. It is arguably the most extensive reference available for designing cold-formed steel structures to EN1993-1-3, and will serve the structural engineering community well in adapting to the expanding range of residential and industrial applications of cold-formed steel.

The use of composite structures in construction is increasing. The optimized combination of the two materials concrete and steel produces particularly cost-efficient structures. This book presents a large number of numerical examples with detailed explanations of the provisions of Eurocode 4. It deals with the most common structural components in building construction: beams, columns and slabs. Furthermore, comprehensive chapters provide insight into the topics of creep and shrinkage, as well as fatigue. This book enables the reader to efficiently perform analyses of composite structures. It is a valuable reference book for professionals as well as an outstanding means for students to become familiar with the Eurocode 4.

Studio RM is the latest update of Datamine’s industry-leading tool for resource and reserve evaluation with a proven track record of over 30 years, replacing Studio 3. With its new activity-based user interface and trusted multi-parametric modelling capabilities, Studio RM is even more powerful and easier to use than its predecessors to deliver corporate resource and reserve information with the quality, accuracy and reliability required by geologists, management and downstream users. Studio RM has the required auditability, repeatability and functionality to produce resource and reserve statements according to the standards demanded by the JORC, SAMREC, NI 43-101 and Guide 7 reporting codes.

This book details the basic concepts and the design rules included in Eurocode 3:

• Design of steel structures: Part 1-8.
• Design of joints.
• Joints in composite construction are also addressed through references to Eurocode 4.
• Design of composite steel and concrete structures.
• Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings.
