Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 This standard is the basic standard for general construction in steel structures and is the prime document for any structural design and has influence on many other codes governing the design of other special steel structures, such as towers, bridges, silos, chimneys, etc.
2 In the revision of this standard, the table on tensile properties of structural steel products has been updated by including the Indian Standards relating to structural steels and aligning the corresponding provisions of the table with those given in IS 2062
3 The working stress design has been discontinued due to the increasing familiarity of designers with the limit state design of steel structures.
