SP 128.13330.2016 PDF

Full title and description

SP 128.13330.2016 — "Алюминиевые конструкции" / "Aluminium structures". This Svod Pravil (СП) establishes the rules and technical requirements for the design of building aluminium structures and is presented as the updated edition of СНиП 2.03.06-85.

Abstract

The document provides normative requirements for the design, calculation and detailing of structural elements made from aluminium and aluminium alloys used in buildings and structures. Topics include material design characteristics, strength and stability checks, joint and connection design (bolted, friction, welded and riveted), special operating conditions, and recommendations for fabrication and corrosion protection. It is published as an актуализированная редакция (updated edition) of the earlier СНиП and is intended to bring aluminium-structure practice into alignment with modern materials and methods.

Scope

Applies to the design of building aluminium structures (elements and assemblies) for buildings and structures. The rules cover normal and special operating conditions, load combinations, strength and stability verification, detailing of members and joints, recommendations on material properties and allowable stresses, and requirements for fabrication, assembly and serviceability of aluminium structural systems. It supersedes and updates provisions of СНиП 2.03.06-85 where indicated.

Key topics and requirements

• Design characteristics and allowable values for aluminium alloys and semi‑finished products.
• Strength and stability checks for columns, beams, trusses and plates made of aluminium.
• Design of connections: bolted, friction, riveted and welded joints; detailing rules and allowable stresses.
• Requirements for buckling, local buckling and slender elements specific to aluminium.
• Recommendations for fatigue, dynamic and repeated loads where applicable.
• Rules for corrosion protection, surface treatment and environmental considerations.
• Requirements for fabrication, inspection, and special conditions for enclosing and load-bearing aluminium structures.

Typical use and users

Used by structural engineers, architects, design organizations, fabrication shops, building-certification bodies and state construction authorities involved in the design, manufacture and inspection of aluminium building structures. Also used as a reference by materials specialists and researchers working on aluminium structural systems and connections.
