ÖNORM EN 1993-1-11|Tension components

EUROCODE 3: Design of steel structures - Part 1-11: Design of structures with tension components

EN 1993-1-11 gives design rules for structures with tension components made of steel which due to their connections with the structure are adjustable and replaceable. Due to the requirement of adjustability and replaceability such tension components are mostly prefabricated products delivered to site and installed into the structure as a whole.

Tension components that are not adjustable or replaceable, e.g. air spun cables of suspension bridges, are outside the scope of this part though rules of this part may be applicable.

EN 1993-1-11 also gives rules for determining the technical requirements for prefabricated tension components for a structure and for assessing their safety, serviceability and durability.

This part of EUROCODE 3 deals with the following types of tension components:

Group

 A

 rod (bar)

 tension rod (bar) system, prestressing bar

 B

 circular wire

 stranded wire

 strand rope

 C

 circular wire

 parallel wire strand (PWS)

 

 circular wire

 bundle of parallel wires (air spun)

 

 seven wire
 (prestressing) strand

 bundle of parallel strands
