    Thank you for posting this idea. As you know, although the design code BS 5950 has been withdrawn. we do still include it as a legacy code from the 2000 edition. Providing implementation for older versions of the code is not viable. If the structure fails to the 2000 version of the code, I would suggest that is worth a longer conversation with the client than validating that it complies with the 1991 edition.
