P126 - European Recommendations for the Design of
Simple Joints in Steel Structures

European Recommendations for the Design of Simple Joints in Steel Structures


This document intends to provide European recommendations for the design of simple joints in steel structures.
Eurocode 3 Part 1-8 “Design of Connections” gives precise guidelines for the design of structural joints aimed at
transferring bending moments. But for simple joints, information is only provided in Eurocode 3 for some specific failure
modes. The way on how internal forces distribute amongst the various components within the joints is also not
explicitly described.
The present publication fills this gap by proposing practical guidelines for the design of simple joints commonly used in
Europe. The design rules presented in this document are in full agreement with the principles of Eurocode 3, and in
particular of Eurocode 3 Part 1-8.

P125 - Buckling of Steel Shells: European Design
Recommendations

Buckling of Steel Shells: European Design Recommendations


This 5th Edition provides an extensive commentary on the existing rules related to buckling in the Eurocode, but extends
far beyond it in giving recommendations, expansions, advice and warnings, explanations and examples, all of which should
give the user considerably more insight and confidence in applying the rules of EN 1993-1-6. This Publication is divided
into two parts. Part I sets out the basic information and general procedures required to undertake all shell buckling
calculations according to EN 1993-1-6. It describes the methodology and conceptual principles for numerical analysis,
either to derive the basic data that can be used in a straightforward buckling design by hand calculation, or to replace parts
of this calculation with numerical assessments, or to carry out a buckling design that is completely based on numerical
assessment. Part II sets out the detailed information for hand calculation procedures when a shell of a particular geometry
is being designed for a particular loading condition.  Many well-proven engineering formulae, empirical data and simplified
rules extracted from numerical parametric studies have been included in this part.
