1 Scope

1.1 This code applies to general construction in steel. Specific provisions for bridges, chimneys, cranes, tanks, transmission line towers, storage structures, tubular structures and structures using cold formed light gauge sections, etc, are covered in separate codes.

1.2 The provisions of this code generally apply to riveted, bolted and welded constructions, using hot rolled steel sections.

1.3 This code gives only general guidance as regards the various loads to be considered in design, For actual loads to be used reference may be made to IS 875 : 1964.
