Advance® section range Our Advance® section range has been developed to reflect current structural design practice and make it easier to specify Tata Steel CE marked structural sections compliant with the EU Directive on Construction Products. What’s new? Since the Advance range of sections was introduced in 2007, designers have gradually moved away from lower steel grades to take advantage of the reduced weight of structural framing materials afforded by the use of higher grades of steel. Our rolling programme reflects that migration and we recommend that you contact your steel supplier to check...

In most circumstances, it is appropriate to make simple assumptions about the state of stress and the sorts of details expected in a structure, and base the choice of sub-grade on these simple assumptions. • Generally, it would be expected that the stress due to factored loads would be more that 0.3 Ynom (the nominal material yield strength). The tensile stress may arise from member bending. • In most structures, components will be welded. • Most steelwork is not subject to high strain rates. Thus in most circumstances, it would be appropriate to take K = 1. The structural designer can then directly...

CE marking of structural steel products Components to be permanently incorporated into construction projects must be shown to comply with the EU Directive on Construction Products (CPD 89/106/EEC). The CPD is enforced in the UK through the Construction Products Regulations (CPR). Compliance with the CPD can be demonstrated in two ways. A product can be CE marked by the manufacturer if it meets a set of Essential Characteristics given in the product’s harmonised standard or the relevant authorities can declare that a product complies with the regulations on a case by case basis using information...
