Abstract

Presents recommendations addressing load bearing structures made of aluminium alloys provided that they are composed of sheets, plates, profiles and structural elements which are rolled, extruded, and welded. Applies to alloys with a material thickness of 20mm or more. Gives particular attention to the mechanical properties of materials. Considers bases for design, alloy qualities, strength of structures and their components (including ultimate and serviceability limit states), stability, bolted and riveted connections, friction connections, and calculation and design of welds.
