This one-day, online course examines changes between BS 5950 and Eurocode 3. The emphasis is on buildings and the provision of general rules for buildings of EN 1993-1-1 and design of joints to EN 1993-1-8.

The third technical lecture of the 2023 series outlines the design approach and technical challenges in delivering HYLO, a high-rise development at the heart of London, whose project team was awarded for full exploitation of an existing structure to maximise retrofit potential at the 2022 Structural Awards.

This CPD module, sponsored by Steel for Life, examines a number of steel’s credentials specifically on its ability to be reused, recycled and multi-cycled, its structural efficiency as a construction material, and its alignment and application to circular economy principles.
