Abstract

The Blue Book is an essential tool for steel designers, giving section properties and member capacities in tabular form for use in design to BS 5950-1:2000. The amendments to BS 5950-1 have resulted in significant technical changes to the rules to which steelwork is designed. This has resulted in numerous changes to member capacities and resistances. In addition to utilising the effective section properties in the member capacity calculations, the Blue Book includes a new set of tables that give the effective section properties for members subject to different loading conditions. Other additions include parallel flange channels, asymmetric beams and deep Universal Beams.
