RELATIONSHIPS
1.1- Introduction
The Egyptian code of 1969 for design and construction of reinforced concrete
structures was based solely on the working stress design method.
The pioneers who initiated the first edition of the Egyptian code worked out
limits which suits adequately local conditions and design procedures which cope
successfully with the more developed methods adopted by some other codes not only
in that era but also for a long duration after that.
The Egyptian code of 1989, 1995 and 2001 incorporates mainly the limit state
design method for reinforced concrete structures. It emphasizes not only the strength
but also the serviceability limit states chapters (3) and (4). Working stress design
method chapter (5) is also concisely presented in the code as for a transition period.
Also main considerations have been given in this code and its revisions to
cover local conditions, practices, quality control, materials and industries. Basic
material strengths covered in the ECCS 203-2001 revision include the following:
1.2 Types and Grades of Reinforcement Bars
The types of steel permitted for use as reinforcement bars clause (2.2.5) of the
code and their characteristic strength table 2.4 (specified minimum yield stress or 0.2
percent proof stress) are as follows:
