Strut Design - Eurocode

This document provides input parameters and calculations for designing pipe struts. It includes inputs like the span of the strut, diameter, thickness, material properties, loads, and safety factors. The outputs include cross sectional areas, volumes, and forces like the total distributed dead load. Safety checks are performed to ensure utilization is below 1, indicating the design is adequate.
