About this book
This third edition of Designers' Guide to Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures – EN 1994-1-1 provides comprehensive guidance in the form of design aids, indications for the most convenient design procedures and worked examples to Eurocode 4.
It reveals how to deal with problems that can arise in applying the code and offers background information and references to enable users of the code to understand the origin and objectives of its provision.
This new edition has been fully revised for changes in materials and products, problems that have arisen with interpretation, and response to questions from industry on unfamiliar methods. Brand new topics covered include shallow-floor construction and use of precast concrete in floors, whilst composite structures and shear connections are overhauled.
This book will cover:
- terms, definitions and symbols
- basis of design
- materials
- durability
- structural analysis
- ultimate limit states
- serviceability limit states
- composite slabs with profiled steel sheeting for buildings composite joints in frames for buildings.
With the text following closely the sequence of clauses in the Eurocode and with clause numbers in the margin for quick reference, this book will be an essential read for civil and structural engineers, code-drafting committees, clients, structural-design students and public authorities.
