The guidance can be extended to connections of other elements (eg support brackets for services). The guide provides a model for the design of simple connections that transfer shear force due to permanent and variable loads and a non-coincident axial tie force resulting from an accidental load case. It points out additional issues which must be considered where coincident shear forces and axial forces are to be dealt with. A sample design of a simple connection for a 610 serial size UB is presented. The design of punching shear reinforcement for the wall is included. The guide discusses the responsibilities of the building structural engineer and the steelwork contractor and suggests where the responsibilities are best divided. It also considers the impact of deviations between the theoretical positions of the parts of the connection and their as-erected positions. Issues relating to construction are discussed and some recommendations made. vii INTRODUCTION A common form of building construction in the UK is to choose concrete cores to provide the lateral stability to steel framed buildings. The steel frames often consist of steel-concrete composite slabs and beams supported on steel columns using simple connections. Loads are transferred through the floor structure to the concrete cores as: ▪ vertical forces from the permanent and variable actions on the floor; ▪ horizontal forces from wind on the building façade or the horizontal component of force from inclined columns; ▪ tie forces for robustness (independent of other forces). Such force
