This Manual covers the design of structures fabricated from steels supplied to BS 4360, and the design strengths, py, should be obtained from Table 2.

Table 2 Design strengths, py
BS 4360 : 1986	thickness less than	sections, plates
grade	or equal to,	hollow sections,
	mm	py, N/mm2
43	16	275
	40	265
	63	255
	100	245
50	16	355
	40	345
	63	340
	100	325

Other steels may be used provided that their design strengths are obtained in a similar manner as in BS 4360.
