Some popular IS Codes in building construction

A code demonstrates the consent of opinion of experienced engineers and professionals.

The codes offer the instructions for the design and construction of structures. They are modified repeatedly to take account new progress (in research, materials, construction methods, etc..) & experience obtained from earlier design practice, behavior of prevailing structures, and collapsing of structures.

Codes include proposed loads for a specified locality, and proposed safeguard for fire and corrosion. They also comprise of rules to manage the processes in which loads should be employed as well as design rules. These rules should be available as detailed recommendations or by reference to other standards that offer specific design rules. The codes should be treated as supports to the design that comprise of stress levels, design formulae, and recommendations for good practice.

The codes primarily offer the following functionalities :-

• They guarantee sufficient structural protection, by designating specific crucial minimum requirements for the design.
• They help the designer in the design method. Often the analysis are accessible like simple formula or charts.
• They make sure to maintain uniformity among several engineers.
• They safeguard the structural engineer from disputes, through codes in various cases do not provide legal protection.


Given below, the detail lists of IS codes which are commonly utilized for Building Construction Practices.
