Abstract

The paper outlines the developments in Britain which led to the current design codes for structural steelwork in buildings. These codes have been adopted with very little modification in the S.A.A. Interim Code 351 for the Use of Structural Steel in Buildings. The irrationalities of the current codes when applied to multi-storey buildings are discussed and some suggestions are made towards revitalisation of the rational method of design put forward in 1936 by the Steel Structures Research Committee.
