This standard BS EN 1994-1-1:2004 Eurocode 4. Design of composite steel and concrete structures is classified in these ICS categories:
- 91.080.40 Concrete structures
- 91.080.10 Metal structures
- 91.010.30 Technical aspects
1.1.1 Scope of Eurocode 4
Eurocode 4 applies to the design of composite structures and members for buildings and civil engineering works. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990 – Basis of structural design.
Eurocode 4 is concerned only with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of composite structures. Other requirements, e.g. concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not considered.
Eurocode 4 is intended to be used in conjunction with:
N 1990 Eurocode: Basis of structural design
EN 1991 Eurocode 1: Actions on structures
ENs, hENs, ETAGs and ETAs for construction products relevant for composite structures
EN 1090 Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures
EN 13670 Execution of concrete structures
EN 1992 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures
EN 1993 Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures
EN 1997 Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design
EN 1998 Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance, when composite structures are built in seismic regions.
Eurocode 4 is subdivided in various parts:
Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
Part 1-2: Structural fire design
Part 2: Bridges.
1.1.2 Scope of Part 1-1 of Eurocode 4
EPart 1-1 of Eurocode 4 gives a general basis for the design of composite structures together with specific rules for buildings.
EThe following subjects are dealt with in Part 1-1:
Section 1: General
Section 2: Basis of design
Section 3: Materials
Section 4: Durability
Section 5: Structural analysis
Section 6: Ultimate limit states
Section 7: Serviceability limit states
Section 8: Composite joints in frames for buildings
Section 9: Composite slabs with profiled steel sheeting for buildings
