Abstract

This paper is concerned with the application of different types of analysis in the design of civil engineering shell structures which are required to satisfy national or international standards. It outlines the framework of design in the new Eurocode 3 Part 1.6 Strength and Stability of Shell Structures, discusses the power and breadth of this standard and outlines some of its requirements. It also raises several issues that remain difficult to resolve, but which are worthy of careful discussion amongst the leading experts in the shell analysis and stability community.
