Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 1-1: General rules for reinforced and unreinforced masonry structures
Also Known As:
Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 1-1: General rules for reinforced and unreinforced masonry structures provides the fundamental guidelines for the design of masonry buildings and civil engineering works. This standard focuses on both unreinforced masonry and reinforced masonry, where reinforcement is incorporated to enhance strength, ductility, or serviceability. However, it does not include specific rules for the design of prestressed masonry or confined masonry, although the general principles are outlined.
The standard is not applicable to structures with a plan area less than 0.04 m2. It is also important to note that for structures not entirely covered by this standard, such as those involving new uses or materials, or influenced by non-standard actions, additional principles and application rules may need to be considered.
Part 1-1 of Eurocode 6 offers detailed rules primarily aimed at ordinary buildings. However, there may be practical or simplification-related limitations on the applicability of these rules, which are specified within the text when necessary.
