Amendments To The Code of Practice For Structural Use of Steel 2011 Item Clause/ Annex Current Version Amendments Remarks

The document summarizes proposed amendments to the Code of Practice for Structural Use of Steel 2011. Several clauses and terms are amended for consistency, including replacing instances of "oscillation" and "vibration" with simply "vibration". Standards referenced are also updated, such as increasing the characteristic strength of reinforcement bars to 500N/mm2. Tables are revised with corrected values. Overall the amendments aim to improve consistency and accuracy in the code.
