The Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE) represents around 400 member companies who design and deliver our national infrastructure.

The Concept (version 4) spreadsheet compares conceptual designs to Eurocode 2 for 13 forms of reinforced concrete construction, then ranks them in order of cost, programme or embodied carbon. It is intended to be used for selecting the most appropriate scheme for an RC frame, and as a “first stab” at determining member sizes.

This webinar gives an introduction to the use of stainless steel in structural applications. Topics covered include grade selection and design of members and connections in accordance with Eurocode 3.

Structural-Safety has two entities; SCOSS, a committee established to maintain a continuing review of building and civil engineering matters affecting the safety of structures, and CROSS, a confidential safety reporting scheme established to capture and share lessons learned which might not otherwise have had formal recognition.

BREEAM is an international scheme that provides independent third party certification of the assessment of the sustainability performance of individual buildings, communities and infrastructure projects.

At the start of each project, a decision is made about the form and material for the structural frame. This publication sets out to help the designer come to an informed decision, giving likely structural options for a concrete frame, with useful points to note written by engineers for engineers.
