IS 800 : 1956 was the first in the series of Indian Standards, brought out upder this programme, The standard was revised in 1962 and subsequently in 1984, incorporating, certain very important changes. IS 800 is the basic Code for general construction in steel structures and is the prime document for any structural design and has influence on many other codes governing the design of other speciat steel structures, such es towers, bridges, silos, chimneys, etc. Realising the necessity to update the standard to the state ofthe art ofthe steel construction technology and economy, the current revision of the standard was undertaken. Consideration has been given to the developments taking place in the country and abroad, and necessary modifications and additions have been incorporated to make the standard more useful ‘The revised standard will enhance the confidence of designers, engineers, contractors, technical institutions, professional bodies and the industry and will open @ new era in safe and economic construction in stee!. In this revision the following major modifications have been effected: 2) In view of the development and production of new varieties of medium and high tensile structural steels, in the country, the scope of the standard has been modified permitting the use of any variety of structural steel provided the relevant provisions of the standard are satisfied. 'b) The standard has made reference tothe Indian Standards now available for rivets; bolts and other fasteners, ©) The standard is based on limit state method, reflecting the latest developments and the state of the art, ‘The revision of the standard was based on a review carried out and the proposals framed by Indian Institute of ‘Technology Madras (IIT Madras). The project was supported by Institute of Steel Development and Growth NSDAG) Kolkata, There has been considerable contribution from INSDAG and IIT Madras, with assistance from a number of academic, research, design and contracting institutes/organizations, in the preparation of the revised standard, In the formulation of this standard the following publications have also been considered: AS-4100-1998 Steel structures (second edition), Standards Australia (Standards Association of Australia), ‘Homebush, NSW 2140. BS-5950-2000 Structural use of steelwork in buildings: Part 1 Code of practice for design in simple and contiauous constriction: Hot rolled sections, British Standards Institution, London.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard, is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, ‘shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2: 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value shoutd be the same as that of the specified value in this standard,Is 800 : 2007 Contents SECTION 1 GENERAL 1 11 Scope 1 12.
