1.1 IEM Structural Engineering Design Course BS 8110, BS8007 CF EC2 Changes in RC Codes

The document summarizes a training course comparing structural design codes for reinforced concrete, including BS, EC, CP110, CP2007. It covers evolution of codes, materials, limit state design, load combinations, slab, beam, column and wall design provisions. Key differences discussed are permissible stresses, crack control criteria, and span-to-depth ratios between codes. Case studies are included to highlight differences in analyzing and designing water-retaining and other structures under various codes.

REINFORCEMENT
C.P • Steel Effect
CP114 & Permissible stresses in steel & concrete Reduced
CP2007 permissible

CP110 & Fy 460 N/mm2 for high yield steel bars up to & incl
BS5337 16mm dia, reduced to 425N/mm2 for bars exceeding
16mm

BS8110 & Characteristic yield strength 460 N/mm2


BS8007 Design yield strength 460/1.05 = 438.1 N/mm2
EC2-1 & EC2- Fyk = 500 N/mm2

Comparison of structural codes
Crack control
C.P Crack control Remark
CP114 & Crack control assumed to be achieved by Structures designed to CP2007 can exhibit
•
CP2007 limiting the permissible stresses cracking because of shrinkage & early
thermal movement of immature concrete
CP110 & BS 5337 improve upon problems in
BS5337 CP2007
• Permits 3 different types of design
• Provide designer with greater
flexibility
BS8110 maximum crack width w = 0.3mm BS8007 revised exposure conditions,
& maximum design crack widths w
BS8007 • Severe or very severe exposure=
0.2mm
• Critical aesthetic appearance = 0.1mm
EC2-1 & Maximum crack width w = 0.4mm Provides 4 classes of structures
• Class 0: some degree of leakage acceptable
EC2-3 • Class 1: leakage limited. Damp patches
• Class 2: Minimal leakage. Staining
• Class 3: no leakage permitted.
Permissible crack width hydrostatic head/root width
varying 0.2mm at hydrostatic width ratio of 5 to 0.05 at
ratio of 35 & above. 17
Comparison of structural codes

Span depth ratio


C.P Span depth ratio for cantilever Remark
•
CP114 & Basic maximum span/depth ratio12
CP2007 for cantilever slab which was reduced
depending on the permissible
stresses in concrete & steel
CP110 & Basic span/effective ratio
BS5337 modified by factors related to
BS8110 & service stresses in tensile &
BS8007 compressive reinforcements
