Economic Concrete Frame Elements to Eurocode 2: A pre-scheme handbook for the rapid sizing and selection of reinforced concrete frame elements in multi-storey buildings designed to Eurocode 2Economic Concrete Frame

Elements (ECFE) acts as a pre-scheme design handbook for the rapid sizing and selection of reinforced concrete frame elements in multi-storey buildings designed to Eurocode 2. The handbook is intended to give designers safe, robust and useful charts and data on which to base their scheme designs. The methodology behind the new charts and data is fully explainedThis publication is based on design to Eurocode 2 and updates the original pre-scheme sizinghandbook Economic Concrete Frame Elements which was based on BS 8110 and published in 1997.
Eurocode 2 brings economies over BS 8110 in some areas – up to 10% has been reported. While
sizes of frame elements to BS 8110 would generally be safe, they would be sometimes unduly
conservative and uneconomic in increasingly competitive markets. In addition, current British
Standards for structural design are due to be withdrawn by 2010, with BS 8110 Structural use
of concrete being made obsolete in 2008. Thus this new edition of Economic concrete frame
elements has been produced by The Concrete Centre.
