For decades, SANS 10100 (South African National Standard: The structural use of concrete ) has been the cornerstone of reinforced concrete design in South Africa. Although it has been partially superseded by SANS 10100-1:2000 (and eventually by Eurocode 2, adopted as SANS 10100-2:2016), many existing structures, local authority projects, and engineering practices still rely heavily on the limit state design philosophy of SANS 10100.
