!In BS EN 1992-1-1:2004, Expression (7.11) the cover, c should be taken as cnom. The use of the
resulting value of sr,max in BS EN 1992-1-1:2004, Expression (7.8) will then provide an estimation of
the crack width at the surface of the concrete. In some situations, such as structures cast against the
ground, cnom will be significantly greater than the cover required for durability. Where there are no
appearance requirements it is reasonable to determine the crack width at the cover required for
durability and verify that it does not exceed the relevant maximum crack width.
This may be done by multiplying the crack width determined at the surface by (cmin,dur + ∆cdev)/cnom to
give the crack width at the cover required for durability, and verifying that it is not greater than
wmax. This approach assumes the crack width varies linearly with zero width at the face of the bar."

!NOTE 4 The values of k in the table might not be appropriate when the form-work is struck at an early age or when the
construction loads exceed the design load. In these cases, the deflections may need to be calculated using advice in specialist
literature, e.g. the Concrete Society’s report on deflecions in concrete slabs and beams and an article for the Magazine of
Concrete Research entitled Are existing span to depth rules conservative for flat slabs?, both of which are referenced in NA.4.
NOTE 5 When the span/depth ratio obtained from NA.3 or Expressions (7.16a) or (7.16b) is adjusted using either (310/σs) or
(500/fyk)(As,prov/As,req), such adjustment should be limited to a maximum value of 1.5. σs should be calculated under characteristic
combination of load at serviceability limit state.
NOTE 6 The absolute value of span/depth may not, in any case, exceed 40K."

NA.4.2 References for conforming to building regulations in the UK
! The Building Regulations 2000 (England and Wales) [1,2], Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004
[3,4,5], and Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2000 [6] require that a building is constructed so
that in the event of an accident the building will not suffer collapse to an extent disproportionate to
the cause. Provisions of EN 1992-1-1 are not considered sufficient in some respects and details and
design approaches for satisfying this requirement are included in PD 6687 as non-contradictory
complimentary information."
