This 180 page commentary helps the reader to understand Eurocode 7 by clarifying the text, reviewing new concepts, comparing it with existing British practice; providing worked examples. The commentary is in five distinct parts: A) Fundamentals, B) Important features of EC7-1, C) Clause-by-clause commentary, D) The way ahead, and E) Worked examples. These combine to explain the intentions of Eurocode 7, especially where this differs from previous design approaches. 183 pages.
