Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Part 2: Steel Bridges
Also Known As:
EN 1993-2 gives a general basis for the structural design of steel bridges and steel parts of composite bridges. It gives provisions that supplement, modify or supersede the equivalent provisions given in the various parts of DIN EN 1993-1. The design criteria for composite bridges are covered in EN 1994-2. Provisions for the design of high strength cables and related parts are included in EN 1993-1-11. This standard is concerned only with the resistance, serviceability and durability of bridge structures. Other aspects of design are not considered. For the execution of steel bridge structures, EN 1090 should be taken into account. Execution is covered to the extent that is necessary to indicate the quality of the construction materials and products that should be used and the standard of workmanship on site needed to comply with the assumptions of the design rules. Special requirements of seismic design are not covered. Reference shall be made to the requirements given in EN 1998, which complements and modifies the rules of EN 1993-2 specifically for this purpose.
