Acknowledgement The SABS Standards Division wishes to acknowledge the input of the Southern African Institute of Steel Construction, and the Joint Structural Division of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering and the Institution of Structural Engineers in the development of this part of SANS Foreword This South African standard was approved by National Committee SABS SC 59F, Construction standards Steel and aluminium structures, in accordance with procedures of the SABS Standards Division, in compliance with annex 3 of the WTO/TBT agreement. This document was published in February This document supersedes SANS 2001-CS1:2005 (edition 1). This document is referenced in the Regulations of the Construction Industry Development Board Act, 2000 (Act No. 38 of 2000). A vertical line in the margin shows where the text has been technically modified by amendment No. 1. Annex A forms an integral part of this part of this document. Annex B is for information only. Introduction The different parts of SANS 2001 each address a specific component of construction works. The prime purpose in the production of these standards is to create a set of standards that are generally applicable to construction works, and which can be readily modified to make them applicable to particular works. The SANS 2001 family of standards provides technical descriptions of the standard of materials and workmanship that will be used in the works that are executed or in the performance of the works when completed (or both). These standards do not make reference to the actions of those responsible for executing the works or the parties to a contract, i.e. to the constraints relating to the manner in which contract work is to be performed. Neither do they deal with the commercial arrangements of such contracts. These standards are suitable for use in any "in-house" construction work or in all types of engineering and construction works contracts, for example, design by employer, design and build, develop and construct, construction management or management contracts. Standard requirements pertaining to the manner in which works are constructed can be found in the SANS 1921 family of standards.

5 Construction works Part CS1: Structural steelwork 1 Scope This part of SANS 2001 covers structural steelwork for buildings and other structures, excluding bridges, offshore structures, mobile equipment (stackers, reclaimers, draglines, cranes, etc.), mine shaft steelwork (buntons and guides) and mining conveyances. This part of SANS 2001 does not cover roof and side cladding, or the detailed aspects of sundry items such as handrails, ladders, steel flooring and the like, neither does it cover protection of steelwork against corrosion or fire. NOTE This part of SANS 2001 may, with additional clauses and suitable variations made in the specification data (see annex A), be applied to structural steelwork falling outside the scope of this part of SANS Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of SANS All standards are subject to revision and, since any reference to a standard is deemed to be a reference to the latest edition of that standard, parties to agreements based on this part of SANS 2001 are encouraged to take steps to ensure the use of the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.
