Eurocode 4 - Design of Composite Steel and Concrete Structures: General Rules and Rules for Buildings
Also Known As:
BS EN 1994-1-1:2004 is a standard that provides guidelines for the design of composite steel and concrete structures, specifically for buildings. It emphasizes safety, serviceability, and durability of these structures, using the limit state concept and a partial factor method. The standard is intended to be used together with other Eurocodes and serves as a reference document for other structural design standards.
The standard covers a range of topics including general provisions, basis of design, materials, durability, structural analysis, ultimate limit states, serviceability limit states, and specific provisions for composite joints and composite slabs with profiled steel sheeting in buildings. It also includes informative annexes on stiffness of joint components, standard tests, and shrinkage of concrete for composite structures.
BS EN 1994-1-1 is intended for use by committees drafting structural design standards, clients specifying reliability levels and durability requirements, designers, constructors, and relevant authorities. It supersedes the previous standard DD ENV 1994-1-1:1994.
