BS EN 1991-1-5: 2003 gives principles and rules for calculating thermal actions on
buildings, bridges and other structures including their structural elements. Principles
needed for cladding and other appendages of buildings are also provided.
BS EN 1991-1-5: 2003 describes the changes in the temperature of structural elements.
Characteristic values of thermal actions are presented for use in the design of
structures which are exposed to daily and seasonal climatic changes. Structures not
so exposed may not need to be considered for thermal actions.
Structures in which thermal actions are mainly a function of their use (e.g. cooling
towers, silos, tanks, warm and cold storage facilities, hot and cold services etc) are
treated in Section 7. Chimneys are treated in EN 13084-1.
