How to Download BS 5400-2:2006 Specification for Loads for Free
BS 5400-2:2006 is a British Standard that specifies the loading to be used for the design of highway and railway bridges and associated structures. It was superseded by BS EN 1990:2002 and BS EN 1991-1-7:2006, but some engineers may still need to refer
to it for historical or contractual reasons.

However, finding a free PDF copy of this standard online can be challenging, as it is not available on the official website of the British Standards Institution (BSI). Moreover, some websites that claim to offer free downloads may be unreliable or
contain malware.

BS 5400-2:2006 Specification for Loads covers various types of loads that may affect bridges and associated structures, such as dead loads, live loads, wind loads, temperature effects, shrinkage and creep effects, and accidental loads. It also provides
guidance on how to combine and apply these loads for different design situations and limit states.

The standard is divided into seven sections and four appendices. The sections are as follows:


Section 1: General
Section 2: Dead loads
Section 3: Live loads
Section 4: Wind loads
Section 5: Temperature effects
Section 6: Shrinkage and creep effects
Section 7: Accidental loads

The appendices are as follows:


Appendix A: Combination of actions
Appendix B: Dynamic effects of traffic loading
Appendix C: Wind tunnel tests
Appendix D: Temperature gradients in concrete bridges

The standard is intended to be used in conjunction with other parts of BS 5400, which cover the design and construction of steel, concrete and composite bridges. It is also compatible with the Eurocodes, which are a set of European standards for
structural design.
