Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structure - Part 2: General rules and rules for bridges

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: 2002 - 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: EN 1990 Basis of structural design EN 1991 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 Design of concrete structures EN 1993 Design of steel structures EN 1997 Geotechnical design EN 1998 Design of structures for earthquake resistance. Eurocode 4 is subdivided in various parts: Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings Part 1-2: Structural fire design Part 2: General rules and rules for bridges.
