BS 5950-2:2001 - Page 2

BS 5950-2:2001 specifies requirements for the materials, fabrication and erection of structural steelwork in buildings subject primarily to static loading, using rolled and welded sections.

NOTE Although the requirements of this standard can be referred to in contractual documents, they might need to be modified, within the terms of contract, to align with specific contractual obligations. Special requirements will also have to be specified in the project specification. Annex B gives general recommendations for the exchange of information in steelworks tenders and contracts.

Annex C identifies references to the project specification.
