This guidance covers the following design stages for the majority of reinforced concrete building structures:
General principles that govern design of the structure's layout
Initial sizing of members
Estimating quantities of reinforcement and prestressing tendons
Final design of members (except for prestressed concrete members)
Nationally Determined Parameters from the relevant UK National Annex have informed the design formulae presented.
This Manual supports the design of non-specialist building structures to BS EN 1990 (Eurocode 0) and BS EN 1991 (Eurocode 1) for UK construction.
All seven IStructE Eurocode manuals (to Eurocodes 1,2,3,5,6,7 and 8) including the second editions of 1 (2021) 5 (2019) and 6 (2018).
