Standards and design codes are crucial components of structural engineering as they provide guidelines, regulations, and specifications for designing safe and reliable structures. These standards ensure that structures can withstand various loads, potential hazards and environmental conditions. Different countries and regions have their own standards and codes, but there are also international standards that are widely recognized. In any case, structural engineers should be familiar with the relevant codes for the region in which they are working in order to ensure that their designs meet safety, resistance, and performance requirements. The American, European, British, Canadian, Australian, Indian and Japanese standards are just a few examples of the many standards and design codes that exist around the world.
