Eurocode 3 - Design of steel structures - Part 1-3: Cold-formed members and sheeting

Edition date: 2026-10-01
In Force
Available languages: German, English
Summary: 1.1 Scope of prEN 1993-1-3 (1) This document provides rules for structural design of cold-formed steel members and sheeting. (2) This document applies to cold-formed steel products made from coated or uncoated hot- or cold-rolled sheet or strip, which have been cold-formed by processes such as roll-forming or press braking. It also covers sheeting and members which are curved during fabrication by continuous bending or roll-forming. Sheeting which has the curvature created by crushing the inner flanges is not included. This document is also applicable to the design of profiled steel sheeting for composite steel and concrete slabs at the construction stage, see EN 1994. The execution of steel structures made of cold-formed steel members and sheeting is covered in EN 1090 4. Provisions for bolted connections are provided in EN 1090 2. NOTE The rules in prEN 1993 1 3 complement the rules in other parts of EN 1993 1. (3) Methods are also given for stressed-skin design, using steel sheeting as a structural diaphragm. (4) This document does not apply to cold-formed circular and rectangular structural hollow sections supplied to EN 10219, for which reference is made to EN 1993 1 1 and EN 1993 1 8. (5) This document provides methods for design by calculation and for design assisted by testing. The methods for design by calculation apply only within the stated ranges of material properties and geometric proportions, for which sufficient experience and test evidence is available. These limitations do not apply to design assisted by testing. 1.2 Assumptions (1) Unless specifically stated, EN 1990, EN 1991 (all parts) and EN 1993 1 1 apply. (2) The design methods given in prEN 1993 1 3 are applicable if: - the execution quality is as specified in EN 1090 4, the execution quality of bolted connections is as specified in EN 1090 2, and - the construction materials and products are as specified in the relevant parts of EN 1993 (all parts), or in the relevant material and product specifications. (2) EN 1993 is intended to be used in conjunction with: - the parts of EN 1992 to EN 1999 where steel structures or steel components are referred to within those documents; - EN, EAD and ETA standards for construction products relevant to steel structures.

1.1 Domaine d'application de l’EN 1993-1-3 (1) Le présent document fournit des règles pour le calcul des structures des profilés et plaques nervurées en acier formés à froid. (2) Le présent document s'applique aux produits en acier formés à froid par des procédés tels que le profilage aux galets ou le pliage à la presse plieuse, à partir de tôles ou bandes d'acier laminées à chaud ou à froid, revêtues ou non revêtues. Il couvre également les plaques nervurées et les profilés qui sont cintrés pendant la fabrication par un procédé de cintrage continu ou de profilage aux galets. Il ne couvre pas les plaques nervurées dont la courbure est obtenue par écrasement des semelles intérieures. Le présent document s'applique également au calcul des plaques nervurées en acier destinées aux dalles mixtes acier-béton en phase de coulage, voir EN 1994 (toutes les parties). L'exécution des structures en acier constituées de profilés et de plaques nervurées en acier formés à froid est couverte par l'EN 1090 4. Des dispositions pour les assemblages boulonnés sont fournies dans l'EN 1090 2. NOTE Les règles données dans l’EN 1993-1-3 complètent celles des autres parties de l'EN 1993 1. (3) Le présent document donne également des méthodes de calcul pour le dimensionnement des structures, tenant compte de la collaboration de paroi, en utilisant des plaques nervurées en acier comme diaphragme. (4) Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux profils creux de construction circulaires et rectangulaires formés à froid fournis suivant l'EN 10219, pour lesquels il convient de se reporter à l'EN 1993 1 1 et à l'EN 1993 1 8. (5) Le présent document fournit des méthodes de dimensionnement par calcul et de dimensionnement assisté par des essais. Les méthodes de dimensionnement par calcul ne s'appliquent que dans des gammes bien définies de caractéristiques de matériaux et de proportions géométriques pour lesquelles on dispose d'une expérience suffisante et d'une validation par essais. Ces limitations ne s'appliquent pas au dimensionnement assisté par des essais. 1.2 Hypothèses (1) Sauf indication contraire, l'EN 1990, l'EN 1991(toutes les parties) et l'EN 1993 1 1 s'appliquent. (2) Les méthodes de calcul données dans l’EN 1993-1-3 sont applicables si : — la qualité de l'exécution est telle que spécifiée dans l'EN 1090 4, la qualité de l'exécution des assemblages boulonnés est telle que spécifiée dans l'EN 1090 2 ; et — les matériaux et produits de construction sont tels que spécifiés dans les parties pertinentes de l'EN 1993 (toutes les parties) ou dans les spécifications de matériaux et de produits appropriées. (3) L'EN 1993 est destiné à être utilisé conjointement avec : — les parties de l'EN 1992 à l'EN 1999 lorsque des structures en acier ou des composants en acier sont référencés dans ces documents ; — les normes EN pour les produits de construction pertinents pour les structures en acier.

1.1 Anwendungsbereich zu FprEN 1993 1 3 (1) Dieses Dokument enthält Regeln für die Tragwerksplanung von kaltgeformten Stahlbauteilen und Profiltafeln. (2) Dieses Dokument gilt für kaltgeformte Stahlerzeugnisse aus beschichtetem oder nicht beschichtetem, warm- oder kaltgewalzten Blech oder Band, das durch Rollprofilier- oder Kantverfahren kaltgeformt wurde. Sie behandelt ebenfalls Profiltafeln und Bauteile, die während der Fertigung durch stetiges Biegen oder Rollprofilieren gekrümmt werden. Profiltafeln, deren Krümmung durch Stauchung der Innengurte erzeugt wird, sind nicht enthalten. Dieses Dokument gilt auch für die Bemessung von Profiltafeln für Stahl-Beton-Verbunddecken im Bauzustand, siehe EN 1994 (alle Teile). Die Ausführung von Stahltragwerken aus kaltgeformten Stahlbauteilen ist in EN 1090 4 geregelt. EN 1090 2 enthält Festlegungen zu Schraubverbindungen. ANMERKUNG Die Regelungen in FprEN 1993 1 3 ergänzen die Regelungen in anderen Teilen von EN 1993 1. (3) Es werden auch Bemessungsverfahren für Schubfeldkonstruktionen mit Stahl-Profiltafeln angegeben. (4) Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für kaltgeformte Rund- und Rechteckhohlprofile, die nach EN 10219 (alle Teile) geliefert werden; hierzu wird auf EN 1993 1 1 und EN 1993 1 8 verwiesen. (5) Dieses Dokument enthält Verfahren für die rechnerische Bemessung und die versuchsgestützte Bemessung. Die rechnerischen Bemessungsverfahren gelten nur in den angegebenen Grenzen für die Werkstoffkennwerte und geometrischen Verhältnisse, für die ausreichende Erfahrung und Versuchsergebnisse vorhanden sind. Diese Einschränkungen gelten nicht für die versuchsgestützte Bemessung. 1.2 Annahmen (1) Sofern nicht ausdrücklich angegeben, gelten EN 1990, EN 1991 (alle Teile) und EN 1993 1 1. (2) Die Bemessungsverfahren nach FprEN 1993 1 3 gelten, wenn: - die Ausführungsqualität den Festlegungen nach EN 1090 4 entspricht, die Ausführungsqualität der Schraubenverbindungen den Festlegungen nach EN 1090 2 entspricht; und - die Werkstoffe und Bauprodukte den Festlegungen in den maßgebenden Teilen von EN 1993 (alle Teile) oder in den maßgebenden Werkstoff- und Produktspezifikationen entsprechen. (3) EN 1993 muss angewendet werden in Verbindung mit: - den Teilen von EN 1992 bis EN 1999, wenn in diesen Dokumenten auf Stahltragwerke und Stahlbauteile Bezug genommen wird; - EN-, EAD- und ETA-Normen für Bauprodukte, die für Stahltragwerke maßgebend sind.
