3.1.7 Strength of materials [BS 8110-1 : 1997]


3.1.7.1 General
The design strengths of materials for ULS are expressed in the tables and the equations in terms of the
characteristic strengths of the materials and partial safety factors.

3.1.7.2 Selection of compressive strength grade of Concrete


The grade of concrete appropriate for use should be selected from the preferred grades in 6 and 8.5 of
BS 5328-1:1997 taking account of the following factors:

• Adequate strength for the limit state requirements of section 2;


• Durability (see 3.1.5 and 3.3 of this standards, 4 and 8.5 of BS 5328-1:1997 and Tables 3 and 6 of BS
5328-2:1997);
• Any other special overriding characteristic.

For reinforced concrete, the lowest grade that should be used is C15 for concrete made with lightweight.
aggregates, and C25 for concrete made with normal-weight aggregates.

3.1.7.3 Age Allowance for Concrete


Design should be based on the 28-day characteristic strength unless evidence justifies a higher
strength for a particular structure.

3.1.7.4 Characteristic Strengths of Reinforcement


Characteristic strengths of reinforcement are given in BS 4449, BS 4482 and BS 4483 and are as shown in
Table 3.1. If necessary, the design may be based on the appropriate characteristic strength or a lower value to
reduce deflection or control cracking.
