Abstract
An attempt is made to look into various aspects of limit state design of steelworks in buildings and the relevance of Indian Standards (IS: 800-1984 [14]) to such a design. Provisions of British Code (BS: 5950-1985 [7]) are kept in view while reviewing the other international standards. Various design provisions in IS: 800-84 are examined and discussed. The anatomy of global factor of safety consisting of partial safety factors imposed on characteristic loads and characteristic strengths are critically examined with statistical backgrounds (Borges and Gastanheta 1971 [5]) and compared with various international recommendations. The so-called characteristic imposed and wind loads stipulated in Indian Standards (IS: 875-1987 [15]) have been compared with those proposed in British Code (CP-3-1972/BS: 6399-1984 [10]) and the American Code (ANSI: A58.1-1982 [3]). The observed discrepancies in the loading standards, affecting the overall factor of safety of the structure, have been highlighted.
