Objective

The aim was to evolve a new product that would make both the transition between code versions and the basic use of the code of practice more user-friendly.  Full user workshops suggested that the following features were required of the electronic version of BS5950 (e-5950).  The key elements were:

·         Comparison on a clause to clause basis of old code (1990) and new code (2000), with old to new and new to old mapping and browsing synchronisation;

·         Technical explanation of the changes made between clauses;

·         Worked examples of application linked to the appropriate clauses;

·         For the novice designers, dynamic flow paths through typical design sequences;

·         All of the above within an easy-to use interface.
