Objective

This project will prepare a simple but complete document and a PC-compatible software product of design guidelines matching the format/layout of the 1991 version of Eurocode 4, but limited to design formulae for typical non-sway composite buildings up to 20 storeys high and excluding halls, for use by designers and steel constructors. The document will be prepared by a working group consisting mainly of designers and constructors from interested European countries, including one from the drafting panel for Eurocode 4.
