Thank you for this video. Please do Eurocode standards have provisions for beams with web openings?

[@FrameMindsEngineering]

Hi, the eurocode does not specifically tackle the topic of castellated and cellular beams. However you can use the same principles shown in this video to determine the local forces in the net section and web posts. Afterwards you can use the provisions of eurocode 3 Part 1-1 for calculation of shear, compressive, tensile, and bending strength.
