“Having reached the goal of starting to publish the series of EN Eurocodes, the construction industry needs all possible assistance in applying the codes, and making the necessary transitions from existing national practice. The ‘Designers’ Guides to the Eurocodes’ series is a very important step in the process, and should facilitate a fast and effective transition to the full and successful adoption of the world’s leading construction design standards in the UK and wider. I commend them.”D. W. Lazenby CBEDirector – British Standards, BSIChairman of CEN/TC 250 “The Structural Eurocodes” 1991 - 1999

Designers’ Guide to EN 1991-1.4 Eurocode 1: Actions on structures, General Actions Parts 1–4. Wind ActionsN. CookThis is the head code for wind actions on structures and describes the principles and requirements for calculating design wind loads on structures. It complies with the requirements of Eurocode EN1990, Eurocode: Basis of Structural Design, and provides the wind actions necessary to implement the structural design Eurocodes 2 to 9. The principal aim of this guide is to provide the user with a commentary on the interpretation and use of EN1991, Eurocode 1: Actions on structures – General actions – Part 1-4: Wind actions, and on the expected changes that will be introduced by the associated National Annexes. In particular, the opportunity has been taken to add a commentary on the changes introduced in the UK National Annex.

Designers' Guide to EN 1991-1.1, 1991-1.3 and 1991-1.5 to 1.7 Eurocode 1: Actions on Structures: General Rules and Actions on BuildingsH. Gulvanessian, J. A. Calgaro, P. Formichi, G. Harding One of the key requirements for the design of buildings is the specification of the actions that structures need to carry. This volume will cover the actions that need to be taken into account for the design of buildings. The book will explain the Eurocode clauses on densities, self-weight and imposed loads; snow loads; thermal actions; actions during execution and accidental actions (including impact loads and explosions). Wind actions and actions due to fire are covered by other volumes in the series. The purpose of this handbook is to help the designer to acquire a good knowledge of the appropriate Eurocodes parts of EN 1991, which they can use in design. Background information is given for each clause and relevant worked examples are provided.

Designers’ Guide to EN 1990 Eurocode: Basis of Structural DesignH. Gulvanessian, J-A. Calgaro and M. HolickyDesigners’ Guide to EN 1990: Basis of Structural Design is considered the primary document in the Eurocode suite and establishes for the structural Eurocodes the principles and requirements for safety and serviceability of structures. More importantly, EN 1990 must be applied whenever Eurocodes 1 to 9 are used.

This Designers’ Guide is one of the first to provide detailed information for using EN 1990. It provides technical information on the background to the Eurocode and explains its relationship to Eurocode 1: Actions on Structures and the material Eurocodes (2-6 and 9), Eurocode 7 for geotechnical design and Eurocode 8 for seismic design.

Contents■ Requirements ■ Principles of limit state design ■ Basic variables ■ Structural analysis and design assisted by testing ■ Verification by the partial factor method ■ Annex A1 (normative) – Application for buildings ■ Management of structural reliability for construction works ■ Basis for partial factor design and reliability analysis ■ Design assisted by testing

THE STRUCTURAL EUROCODESThe ten structural eurocodes consist of the head code, EN1990 and then nine design codes EN1991 to EN1999, grouped by material. The Eurocodes are linked as follows:

For ease of selection, within this catalogue, Eurocodes are grouped by the above topic areas i.e. actions and structures, design and detailing, geotechnical and seismic design. Where appropriate, the column headings also refer to the material type covered by the guide

The Eurocodes Expert team aim to help clients, designers, contractors and suppliers understand and use the structural Eurocodes. Eurocodes Expert services include:

■ the publications within this catalogue

■ the Eurocodes Expert website www.eurocodes.co.uk, an initiative by the Institution of Civil Engineers and Institution of Structural Engineers

■ Eurocodes training courses

■ the Eurocodes Users Group

GulvanessianThe design process of a bridge includes several steps. One of the major steps is the determination of actions and combinations of actions. These actions are imposed loads due to traffic (road, pedestrian, railway traffic), climatic actions (wind, snow, thermal actions), actions due to water or soil subsidence, construction loads and accidental actions. Of course, the relevant combinations of actions need to be defined for permanent, transient and accidental design situations. The purpose of this guide is to help the designer to acquire a good knowledge of the appropriate Eurocodes (EN 1990 and EN 1991) and parts of these Eurocodes.

Contents■ General aspects of the design of bridges with the Eurocodes■ Determination of non-traffic actions for permanent

design situations■ Traffic loads on road bridges■ Traffic loads on footbridges■ Traffic loads on railway bridges■ Actions during execution■ Accidental actions■ Combinations of actions for permanent, transient and

This handbook describes a process for analysing and responding to risks which can affect the overall success of projects. It is designed to meet a perceived need for a more rigorous approach to risk management, which can be applied to all types and stages of investments.

This edition of the handbook incorporates significant changes, with more attention being devoted to upside risks, general uncertainty, risk efficiency, decision criteria, and the need for independent validation of appraisals. It also includes new material about public sector procurement. A new Appendix 12 presents recent evidence about the serious and sometimes unrecognised risks in major infrastructure projects, both in the UK and abroad, and makes recommendations for changes in the way these risks are approached.

CONTENTS■ Introduction and summary■ Overview of RAMP■ Launching the RAMP process■ Starting the risk review■ Responding to risks■ Planning for risk control■ Managing risks■ Closing-down phase■ Applications and case studies
