It was prepared by Technical Committee B/204, Structuraldesign of low-rise buildings
19、. A list of organizations represented on thiscommittee can be obtained on request to its secretary.SupersessionThis part of BS 8103 supersedes BS 8103-1:1995 and BS 8103-4:1995, which arewithdrawn.Relationship with other publicationsBS 8103 will be published in three parts: Part 1: Code of practice
20、for stability, site investigation, foundations andground floor slabs for housing; Part 2: Code of practice for masonry walls for housing; Part 3: Code of practice for timber floors and roofs for housing.Information about this documentThe scope and limitations of this part of BS 8103 are similar to A
21、1/2 Section 2 ofApproved Document A to The Building Regulations 1. A particular exception isthat the maximum clear span for roofs is up to 12 m rather than9minApproved Document A.A large proportion of the national building programmes is concerned with newhousing and alterations in both the public an
22、d private sectors, where traditionalmethods of construction are used for the majority of houses, and it is to thesethat this part of BS 8103 is applicable.Use of this documentIt is assumed that this standard will be used by those with expertise in buildingconstruction but not necessarily in structur
23、al engineering design. Housesconstructed within the limitations stated in the relevant clauses will not requireadditional specialist advice. For any conditions outside the limitations of thisstandard appropriate specialist advice has to be obtained.When using this standard, it is important to ensure
24、 that the overall stability ofthe house is achieved and that the work of any specialist engaged is properlycoordinated. The situations included in this standard which require theconsultation of suitably qualified persons are identified in the clauses to whichthey relate.All drawings in this document
25、 only show structural details. Other details, e.g.damp proof courses, are not included.In particular, it is expected that changes in the regulatory requirements forenergy conservation are likely to modify the use of the traditionaldetails. Examples are providing insulation below ground bearing floor
26、s, orincreased thicknesses of insulation in cavity walls. Such items are outside thescope of this British Standard, which deals only with the basic structural issues.As a code of practice this part of BS 8103 takes the form of guidance andrecommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a spec
27、ification andparticular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are notmisleading.BRITISH STANDARD BS 8103-1:2011 BSI 2011 iiiAny user claiming compliance with this part of BS 8103 is expected to be able tojustify any course of action that deviates from its recommendations.Presentat
28、ional conventionsThe provisions in this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Itsrecommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliaryverb is “should”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented insmaller italic type, and does not consti
29、tute a normative element.The word “should” is used to express recommendations of this standard. Theword “may” is used in the text to express permissibility, e.g. as an alternative tothe primary recommendation of the clause. The word “can” is used to expresspossibility, e.g. a consequence of an actio
30、n or an event.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of acontract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legalobligations.BRITISH STANDARDBS 8103-1:2011iv
31、 BSI 20111 ScopeThis part of BS 8103 gives recommendations for the structural design of low-risehousing and covers the stability of the structure, site investigation andfoundations and ground floor slabs used in the construction. Foundationscomprising strip footings or trench fill founded in normal
32、ground are the onlytype described.Low-rise housing comprises detached, semi-detached and terraced houses andflats (with not more than four self-contained dwelling units per floor accessiblefrom one staircase), of not more than three storeys above ground intended fordomestic occupation and of traditi
33、onal masonry construction with timber roofsand floors of timber or concrete. For the purposes of this standard, additionalhabitable accommodation in the roof space constitutes a storey of the house.The recommendations also apply to certain single storey, non-residentialbuildings, e.g. domestic garag
34、es and annexes to residential buildings with afloor area not exceeding 36 m2. This standard does not include the design ofbasements but, providing the basement is of one level only and is designed toprovide a firm platform at ground level, the provisions of this standard mayapply to the superstructu
35、re.Proprietary housing systems and houses of timber, steel or concrete framedconstruction are not covered by this standard.The structural design recommendations described in this standard are notspecifically intended to cover other considerations such as fire resistance,thermal and sound insulation,
36、 resistance to damp penetration and durability.For the purposes of this part of BS 8103, the following limitations apply:a) roof: maximum clear span 12.0 m;b) floor: maximum clear span 6.0 m;c) a dynamic wind pressure not exceeding a value of 1.2 kN/m2(see 4.3);d) no part of wall or roof higher than
37、 15 m above lowest adjacent groundlevel;e) storey height: maximum 2.7 m;f) maximum clear length of a loadbearing wall between vertical lateralsupports of 9.0 m;g) maximum length of any opening in loadbearing walls: 3.0 m;h) only strip footings or trench fill foundations in normal ground conditions(s
38、ee 6.1).NOTE Where foundations other than those given in item h) have been designed bysuitably qualified persons, the remainder of the building may be constructed inaccordance with the relevant clauses of this standard.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for th
