NZS 3404 Parts 1 and 2:1997
Steel Structures Standard
This document has been re-assessed by the committee, and judged to still be up to date.
Part 1 sets out minimum requirements for the design, fabrication, erection and modification of steelwork in structures in accordance with the limit state design method or in accordance with the alternative design method. Part 2 provides background material to the requirements of Part 1. Gives the origin of certain requirements, departures from previous practice, and explains the application of certain clauses.
