Abstract

The paper offers a systematic account of aluminium alloys and places emphasis on their advantages by providing examples of aluminium use in modern structures. Rapid development of standards for this "new" material enables its wider utilization although all participants in the construction process, structural engineers in particular, should be additionally educated in this segment to enable a real increase in its use.
