Design and CE marking
Initial type testing (could be calculation)
Declaration of parameters (CE label)
Factory production control
Processes to ensure that stated quality is achieved
Certification followed by on-going
surveillance of the FPC

CE marking of steel buildings
EN 1090-1
Steel components and kits
Appropriate for structural steelwork and frames
Does not cover the whole building (e,g. cladding)
Gives options for declaring design performance
![Page 5: Structural Design of Agricultural Buildings](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022012522/6196650e2244ca755a35b7e6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Mechanical resistance and stability
Options in EN 1090-1 on how to declare mechanical resistance:
Declare properties so that others can calculate resistance
Manufacturer declares mechanical resistance
Declare compliance with third party specification (client’s design)
Declare compliance with purchaser’s order (e.g. use specific standard)
![Page 6: Structural Design of Agricultural Buildings](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022012522/6196650e2244ca755a35b7e6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Mechanical resistance and stability
However:
Agricultural clients do not normally employ their own engineers
Agricultural clients are not qualified to suggest alternative design methods
Agricultural buildings should be designed to BS 5502-22
with loadings and resistances calculated to the Eurocodes
Either declare mechanical resistance on CE label (not normal)
Declare that the frame design complies with BS 5502-22
A design process should therefore form part of the FPC

Demonstration of compliance
Manufacturers will need to demonstrate
mechanical resistance calculation
Notified Body will expect sample structural
calculations for typical building
Calculations must be to Eurocodes (BS 5502-22)
RIDBA has a Design Protocol to assist its
members

The Design process
Loadings are location specific
Loadings depend on building use
Safety margin?
Economy
Buildings do collapse when not designed
and detailed properly

The Design process
Identify building location, proposed use and other factors
Determine the building loads:
Permanent (dead)
Imposed (maintenance access)
Wind
Snow (including drift)
Construction loads (if appropriate)
Apply factors and calculated design load cases

The Design process
Select frame members to meet strength and
deflection requirements
Check frame stability
Design and detail connections
Other details such as rafter restraint

The Design Process
Software
Many reliable packages available
Portal frame software uses plastic design so very efficient
Most packages include connection design software
Tables
RIDBA tables are for estimating only
Any designs produced using the tables MUST be checked by a
qualified engineer
![Page 16: Structural Design of Agricultural Buildings](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022012522/6196650e2244ca755a35b7e6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Reuse of steel structures
The sale of second-hand frames and members is increasing
This raises questions regarding design and CE marking
Design issues:
Steel should be inspected and tested
Possible reduction in ductility (plastic design not recommended)
Use different safety factors to allow for material uncertainty
CE marking
The need to CE mark depends on what is done to the steel between salvage and re-sale.
Declared values will be derived from tested properties
