For low-rise buildings (h/d 0.25), according to EN 1991-1-4, Table 7.1 the effect of building plan dimension is more severe on the positive pressure of the windward face when the inwind depth d is the longer dimension. Albeit, the directional factor is conservatively assumed unity.

2.2 Structure tolerance 2.2.1 Concrete Structures
Permitted deviation is the permitted algebraic differences between the limits of size and the corresponding reference size (unless is stated). See EN 13670:2009 cl. 3.13, also ISO 1803:1997 cl. 3.8. The "box principle" will require that all points of the structure are within the specified theoretical position with a margin in any direction corresponding to the permitted deviation. A recommended value when applying the box principle is 20 mm.

5.2 Definitions 5.2.1 H Tempers
Work hardening is used extensively to produce strain-hardened tempers of the non-heat-treatable alloys. H X Y
H Strain hardened by cold working X = 1 for strain hardened only. = 2 for strain hardened and partially annealed. The products are strain hardened more than is required to achieve the desired properties and then are reduced in strength by partial annealing.
= 3 for strain hardened and stabilized. In the strain-hardened condition, these alloys tend to age soften at room temperature. Therefore, they are usually heated at a low temperature to complete the age-softening process and to provide stable mechanical properties and improved working characteristics. Y = 2 for quarter-hard cold work condition. = 4 for half-hard cold work condition. = 6 for three-quarter cold work condition. = 8 for full-hard cold work condition. = 9 for extra-hard cold work condition.
5.2.2 T Tempers The complete heat-treatment consists of a solution heat-treatment, a quenching process and subsequent ageing, where the actual hardening occurs. It must be said that, unlike steel, aluminium alloys are definitely not hard after quenching. To get the highest strength values it is important to keep the material for sufficient time at the correct solution heat temperature and to follow the correct quenching procedure. Depending on the alloy this may be carried out using water or moving air. Quenching with water produces distortion and residual stresses. Alloys quenchable with air have some technical and economical advantages, but the most of the high strength alloys need to be water quenched. If the solution heat-treatment or the quenching process is not properly executed this will result in lower values with respect to mechanical strength and elongation (ductility). Symbol Description T4 = Solution heat-treated and then naturally aged T5 = Cooled from an elevated temperature shaping process and then artificially aged T6 = Solution heat-treated and then artificially aged T61, T64 = Solution heat-treated and then artificially aged in underageing conditions in order to improve formability (T64 between T61 and T6) T66 = Solution heat-treated and then artificially aged mechanical property level higher than T6 achieved through special control of the process 6000 series alloys T7 = Solution heat-treated and artificially over-aged

Small contact areas and areas which dry quickly may be assembled without sealing (see procedure X) Procedure X Both contact surfaces should be assembled so that no crevices exist where water can penetrate. Both contact surfaces, including bolt and rivet holes should, before assembly, be cleaned, pre-treated and receive one priming coat, see prEN 1090-3, or sealing compound, extending beyond the contact area. The surfaces should be brought together while priming coat is still wet. Where assembling pre-painted or protected components sealing of the contact surfaces might be unnecessary, dependant on the composition of the paint or protection system employed, the expected life and the environment.
Treatment applied to bolts and rivets Procedure 0 No additional treatment is usually necessary. Procedure 1 Inert washers or jointing compound should be applied between the bolt heads, nuts, washers and connected materials to seal the joint and to prevent moisture entering the interface between components and fixings. Care should be employed to ensure that load transfer through the joint is not adversely affected by the washers or jointing compounds. Procedure 2 Where the joint is not painted or coated for other reasons, the heads of bolts, nuts and rivets should be protected with at least one priming coat (see prEN 1090-3;), care being taken to seal all crevices. Note: Similar coating on aluminium and zinc-coated steel parts around the stainless steel bolts is required only for immersed structures.
Further treatments Procedure a If not painted for other reasons it may be necessary to protect the adjacent metallic parts of the contact area by a suitable paint coating in cases where dirt may be entrapped or where moisture retained. Procedure z Additional protection of zinc-coated structural parts as a whole may be necessary

I-7 TIMBER DESIGN 7.1 Strength grade 7.1.1 Solid timber
A timber population may be assigned to a strength class if its characteristic values of bending strength and density equal or exceed the values for that strength class, and its characteristic mean modulus of elasticity in bending equals or exceeds 95 % of the value for that strength class. Strength grading of solid timber can be achieved in one of two ways: Visual method: EN 14081-1. Machine method: EN 14081-1, EN 14081-2, EN 14081-3 & EN 14081-4. The characteristic values are defined as the population 5th-percentile values obtained from the results of tests with a duration of approximately 5 min at the equilibrium moisture content of the test pieces relating to a temperature of 20C and a relative humidity of 65%.

7.1.2 Glulam A glued laminated member can be assigned to one of the strength classes if its characteristic bending strength and modulus of elasticity, derived from tests in accordance with EN 408 and EN 1193, equal or exceed the values for that strength class. It is assumed that bending specimens have a depth h 600 mm and thickness b 150 mm. It is assumed that tension specimens have a width h 600 mm and thickness b 150 mm. If the cross-section dimensions are lower than these reference values, the test results shall be multiplied by:
