What is BS 8666:2020 about?
This British Standard provides the build environment/construction sector with requirements for the scheduling, dimensioning, cutting and bending of steel used to reinforce concrete. BS 8666:2020 was revised to bring it in line with Eurocode 2.
Who is BS 8666:2020 for?
- Designers
- Specifiers
- Main contractors
- Sub-contractors
- Rebar suppliers (cut and bent)
- Fabricators (mesh and prefab)
- Outsource detailers worldwide
Why should you use BS 8666:2020?
This revised British Standard specifies requirements for the scheduling, dimensioning, cutting and bending of steel for the reinforcement of concrete conforming to BS 4449, BS 4483 and BS 6744; and designed to BS EN 1992-1-1, BS EN 1992-2, BS EN 1992-3 and BS 8110.
Users will adopt this standard to ensure they’re up to date with best practice and latest techniques/shape dimensions for the design and manufacture of reinforcement steel.
Use of the standard will also develop their expertise and improve their efficiency.
BS 8666:2020 contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goal 9 on industry, innovation and infrastructure because it underpins the resilience of the built environment.
