Gives non-contradictory complementary information for use in the UK with BS EN 1998-1:2004, BS EN 1998-2:2005, BS EN 1998-4:2006, BS EN 1998-5:2004 and BS EN 1998-6:2005, and their UK National Annexes.

This Published Document provides non‑contradictory complementary information for use in the UK with BS EN 1998‑1:2004, BS EN 1998‑2:2005, BS EN 1998‑4:2006, BS EN 1998‑5:2004 and BS EN 1998‑6:2005, and their UK National Annexes.

This Published Document gives background information and some additional guidance on the clauses subject to National Choice in these parts of BS EN 1998.

This document only covers the United Kingdom and does not consider conditions applicable to British Overseas Territories, where seismological and other aspects might be very different. It is restricted to considerations for the design of new structures within the scope of BS EN 1998‑1, BS EN 1998‑2, BS EN 1998‑4, BS EN 1998‑5 and BS EN 1998‑6 to resist seismic actions.
