Modern structural design codes such as the EUROCODES provide a simple, economic and safe way for the design of civil engineering structures. CodeCal is an Excel based program for the Reliability Based Code Calibration of structural design codes, which are based on the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) format. The calibration of the partial safety factors can be performed, following the approach recommended by the Joint Committee on Structural Safety (JCSS) - http://www.jcss.ethz.ch/. The program can be downloaded as freeware: CodeCal. The tutorial in the list of references illustrates the application of CodeCal.
The Technical Dictionary contains more than 700 terms from the field of structural engineering in German, French, Italian and English. It was produced to aid to the teaching of this subject by providing a translation of the most important technical terms in each of the abovementioned languages. It should also prove useful to the practicing engineer.
The dictionary makes no claims to completeness.
