A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Simplified version of Eurocode 4 for usual buildings
The aim of the following ECSC research is to elaborate a simple but complete document to design commonly used buildings with composite steel-concrete sections. This document is based completely on Eurocode 4 and each paragraph totally conforms to Eurocode 4. Only the design formulas necessary to design braced buildings have been taken into account in this document. The size of the buildings is limited to 20 storeys. Halls are not treated. The designers and steel constructors will be able to calculate and erect a commonly used composite steel-concrete building with this document. Therefore, the important load cases from Eurocode 1 have also been included in this document. The working group of this research project was composed of 15 European engineering offices. The link of the working group to the drafting panel of Eurocode 4 was guaranteed by Professor Sedlacek of Aachen University. The first part of the research consisted of two different examples of calculation carried out by engineering offices: check of an existing braced composite steel-concrete structure with Eurocodes 1 and 4 and design of a braced composite steel-concrete building with Eurocodes 1 and 4. In the second part of this research, a practical handbook of Eurocode 4 has been written on the basis of the design procedures and he needed formulas used in the examples of calculation.
