Synopsis Let X be a uniformly convex Banach space, and N(X) the normal structure coefficient of X. In this paper it is proved that N(X) can be calculated by considering only sets whose points are equidistant from their Chebyshev centre. This result is applied to prove that N(LP(Ω)) = min {21−1/p, 21/p}, Ω being a σ-finite measure space. The computation of N(Lp) lets us also calculate some other coefficients related to the normal structure.
