8、rking loads of trench struts are not specified in this standard. It is recommended that the axial concentric compression working load of trench struts be less than 30 kN. The principal changes from the 1982 edition are as follows. a) Adjustable telescopic steel props (previously known as metal props

9、), which are primarily intended for use in falsework and other structures requiring temporary compression support members, are now covered in BS EN 1065:1999. b) The title has been changed to Specification for steel trench struts to describe the common usage of the product more accurately. c) The de

10、tails for designing a trench strut according to its geometric characteristics have been amended to include thinner-walled thread-rolled outer tubes and thinner-walled higher-strength inner tubes, which will result in lighter, more economical designs. d) Cut threads on the outer tubes are no longer i

11、ncluded. e) A test to verify that the component parts of trench struts do not become inadvertently disengaged in use has been added. f) There is now a requirement aimed at preventing shear failure caused by any reduction in the pin cross-section. g) There is now a requirement to mark trench struts w

12、ith the year of manufacture. The previously accepted characteristic resistance, f k , of trench struts has been retained at 50.0 kN. Examples of calculations on trench strut pin connections are given in annex A. A British Standard does not purport to include all necessary provisions of a contract. U

The requirements relate to materials, design, dimensions, strength and res

15、istance to unintentional disengagement. The dimensions specified include the lengths fully open and fully closed. The standard does not give information on the use of trench struts. NOTE 1 The requirements of this standard are intended to ensure that the struts will have a characteristic resistance

16、of 50 kN at all extensions. The standard does not specify a requirement for this characteristic resistance or a means of verifying it. Annex A gives examples of calculations on trench strut pin connections. NOTE 2 Various protective finishes are specified in BS EN 1065:1999. 2 Normative references T
