Materials Other Than Steel and Concrete

This Offshore Technology (OT) Report provides technical information on the structural use of materials other than steel or concrete for Offshore Installations.

It is based on guidance previously contained in Section 24 of the Fourth Edition of the Health and Safety Executive's "Offshore Installations: Guidance on Design, Construction and Certification"(1) which was withdrawn in 1998.

As discussed in the Foreword, whilst the text has been re-formatted for Offshore Technology publication, the technical content has not been updated.

The appropriateness and currency of the information contained in this document must therefore be assessed by the user for any specific application.
