The corrections are to add a "P" after the clause number and change "should" to "shall" where appropriate. The corrections are underlined as shown.

a) "2.2 General requirements"

"(1)P All joints shall have a design resistance such that the structure is capable of satisfying all the basic design requirements given in this Standard and in EN 1993-1-1."

"(3)P Joints subject to fatigue shall also satisfy the principles given in EN 1993-1-9."

b) "2.3 Applied forces and moments"

"(1)P The forces and moments applied to joints at the ultimate limit state shall be determined according to the principles in EN 1993-1-1."

c) "2.5 Design assumptions"

"(1)P Joints shall be designed on the basis of a realistic assumption of the distribution of internal forces and moments. The following assumptions shall be used to determine the distribution of forces:"

"(d) the assumed distribution of internal forces shall be realistic with regard to relative stiffnesses within the joint,"

d) "4.1 General"

"(2)P Welds subject to fatigue shall also satisfy the principles given in EN 1993-1-9."

e) "6.4.1 General"

"(1)P In the case of rigid plastic global analysis, a joint at a plastic hinge location shall have sufficient rotation capacity."

f) "7.2.1 General"

"(1)P The design values of the internal axial forces both in the brace members and in the chords at the ultimate limit state shall not exceed the design resistances of the members determined from EN 1993-1-1.

(2)P The design values of the internal axial forces in the brace members at the ultimate limit state shall also not exceed the design resistances of the joints given in 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 or 7.7 as appropriate."

g) "7.3.1 Design resistance"

"(1)P The welds connecting the brace members to the chords shall be designed to have sufficient resistance to allow for non-uniform stress-distributions and sufficient deformation capacity to allow for redistribution of bending moments."

h) "7.4.2 Uniplanar joints"

"(1)P In brace member connections subject only to axial forces, the design internal axial force Ni,Ed shall not exceed the design axial resistance of the welded joint Ni,Rd obtained from Table 7.2, Table 7.3 or Table 7.4 as appropriate."

National Foreword This Irish Standard is the official English language version of EN 1993-1-8:2005, prepared by Technical Committee CEN TC 250 "Structural Eurocodes". This document supersedes ENV 1993-1-1:1992. This standard forms part of a package of 58 Eurocodes, which covers the basis of structural design, actions (loadings), the main structural materials, geotechnical design and design provisions for earthquakes. The European Commission document – Guidance Paper L – Application and Use of Eurocodes provides guidance on the elaboration, implementation and use of Eurocodes. Where a normative part of this EN allows for a choice to be made at the national level the range, possible choices are given in the normative text, and a Note will qualify it as a Nationally Determined Parameter (NDP). To enable EN 1993-1-8:2005 to be used in Ireland the Nationally Determined Parameters will be published in a National Annex after public consultation has taken place. Until the National Annex is available, publication of this European Standard is solely for education/training purposes and this standard should not be used in project design until the relevant National Annex is available. Note: For Use of this European Standard after publication of the Irish National Annex I.S. EN 1993-1-8:2005 may now be used in Ireland. The Nationally Determined Parameters, which have been prepared by the NSAI National Eurocode Advisory Committee, are included as an informative annex to the standard. The National Annex to I.S. EN 1993-1-8:2005 is also available as a separate publication as recommended in Guidance Paper L. In line with international standards practice the decimal point is shown as a comma (,) throughout this document

Foreword This European Standard EN 1993, Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures, has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC250 « Structural Eurocodes », the Secretariat of which is held by BSI. CEN/TC250 is responsible for all Structural Eurocodes. This European Standard shall be given the status of a National Standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2005, and conflicting National Standards shall be withdrawn at latest by March 2010. This Eurocode supersedes ENV 1993-1-1. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the National Standard Organizations of the following countries are bound to implement these European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Background to the Eurocode programme In 1975, the Commission of the European Community decided on an action programme in the field of construction, based on article 95 of the Treaty. The objective of the programme was the elimination of technical obstacles to trade and the harmonization of technical specifications. Within this action programme, the Commission took the initiative to establish a set of harmonized technical rules for the design of construction works which, in a first stage, would serve as an alternative to the national rules in force in the Member States and, ultimately, would replace them. For fifteen years, the Commission, with the help of a Steering Committee with Representatives of Member States, conducted the development of the Eurocodes programme, which led to the first generation of European codes in the 1980s. In 1989, the Commission and the Member States of the EU and EFTA decided, on the basis of an agreement1 between the Commission and CEN, to transfer the preparation and the publication of the Eurocodes to CEN through a series of Mandates, in order to provide them with a future status of European Standard (EN). This links de facto the Eurocodes with the provisions of all the Council’s Directives and/or Commission’s Decisions dealing with European standards (e.g. the Council Directive 89/106/EEC on construction products - CPD - and Council Directives 93/37/EEC, 92/50/EEC and 89/440/EEC on public works and services and equivalent EFTA Directives initiated in pursuit of setting up the internal market). The Structural Eurocode programme comprises the following standards generally consisting of a number of Parts: EN 1990 Eurocode 0: Basis of Structural Design EN 1991 Eurocode 1: Actions on structures EN 1992 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures EN 1993 Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures EN 1994 Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures EN 1995 Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures EN 1996 Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures EN 1997 Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design EN 1998 Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance EN 1999 Eurocode 9: Design of aluminium structures

1 Agreement between the Commission of the European Communities and the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN)

concerning the work on EUROCODES for the design of building and civil engineering works (BC/CEN/03/89).

Eurocode standards recognize the responsibility of regulatory authorities in each Member State and have safeguarded their right to determine values related to regulatory safety matters at national level where these continue to vary from State to State. Status and field of application of eurocodes The Member States of the EU and EFTA recognize that Eurocodes serve as reference documents for the following purposes : – as a means to prove compliance of building and civil engineering works with the essential requirements

of Council Directive 89/106/EEC, particularly Essential Requirement N°1 – Mechanical resistance and stability – and Essential Requirement N°2 – Safety in case of fire;

– as a basis for specifying contracts for construction works and related engineering services; – as a framework for drawing up harmonized technical specifications for construction products (ENs and

ETAs) The Eurocodes, as far as they concern the construction works themselves, have a direct relationship with the Interpretative Documents2 referred to in Article 12 of the CPD, although they are of a different nature from harmonized product standards3. Therefore, technical aspects arising from the Eurocodes work need to be adequately considered by CEN Technical Committees and/or EOTA Working Groups working on product standards with a view to achieving full compatibility of these technical specifications with the Eurocodes. The Eurocode standards provide common structural design rules for everyday use for the design of whole structures and component products of both a traditional and an innovative nature. Unusual forms of construction or design conditions are not specifically covered and additional expert consideration will be required by the designer in such cases. National Standards implementing Eurocodes The National Standards implementing Eurocodes will comprise the full text of the Eurocode (including any annexes), as published by CEN, which may be preceded by a National title page and National foreword, and may be followed by a National annex. The National annex may only contain information on those parameters which are left open in the Eurocode for national choice, known as Nationally Determined Parameters, to be used for the design of buildings and civil engineering works to be constructed in the country concerned, i.e. : – values and/or classes where alternatives are given in the Eurocode, – values to be used where a symbol only is given in the Eurocode, – country specific data (geographical, climatic, etc.), e.g. snow map, – the procedure to be used where alternative procedures are given in the Eurocode. It may contain – decisions on the application of informative annexes, – references to non-contradictory complementary information to assist the user to apply the Eurocode. Links between Eurocodes and harmonized technical specifications (ENs and ETAs) for products

2 According to Art. 3.3 of the CPD, the essential requirements (ERs) shall be given concrete form in interpretative documents for the

creation of the necessary links between the essential requirements and the mandates for harmonized ENs and ETAGs/ETAs. 3 According to Art. 12 of the CPD the interpretative documents shall : a) give concrete form to the essential requirements by harmonizing the terminology and the technical bases and indicating classes or levels for each

requirement where necessary ; b) indicate methods of correlating these classes or levels of requirement with the technical specifications, e.g. methods of calculation and of proof,

technical rules for project design, etc. ; c) serve as a reference for the establishment of harmonized standards and guidelines for European technical approvals.

The Eurocodes, de facto, play a similar role in the field of the ER 1 and a part of ER 2.

There is a need for consistency between the harmonized technical specifications for construction products and the technical rules for works4. Furthermore, all the information accompanying the CE Marking of the construction products which refer to Eurocodes should clearly mention which Nationally Determined Parameters have been taken into account. National annex for EN 1993-1-8 This standard gives alternative procedures, values and recommendations with notes indicating where national choices may have to be made. The National Standard implementing EN 1993-1-8 should have a National Annex containing all Nationally Determined Parameters for the design of steel structures to be constructed in the relevant country. National choice is allowed in EN 1993-1-8 through: – 2.2(2) – 1.2.6 (Group 6: Rivets) – 3.1.1(3) – 3.4.2(1) – 5.2.1(2) – 6.2.7.2(9)
