Abstract	In Linac 4, proposed as a future H¯ linear accelerator for CERN, a Side-Coupled Linac (SCL) structure will accelerate the beam from 90 MeV to 160 MeV. This note presents the preliminary SCL design, including 2D and 3D RF structure design, layout optimisation, setting up of matched beam optics parameters and a multiparticle beam dynamics analysis.
