Work Package 5

WP 5 concerns the issue of codification of proposed code amendments and the dissemination of all relevant material produced in the course of the project. Concrete proposals for Code amendments regarding design of single angle and built-up cross sections and members are discussed and written down for all relevant clauses of EN 1993-1-1, EN 1993-3-1 and EN 50341. A number of journal and conference publications are envisioned, together with the distribution of the relevant design guide at targeted mini-symposia, workshops and via national engineering associations. The targeted audience is mainly structural engineers and construction companies, as well as employees of telecommunication and electricity, who can influence the decision process when building new or reinforcing existing lattice towers.
