DESCRIPTION

BS EN 1995-1-1:2004+A2:2014


This standard BS EN 1995-1-1:2004+A2:2014 Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 91.010.30 Technical aspects
  • 91.080.20 Timber structures

1.1.1 Scope of EN 1995

  1. P EN 1995 applies to the design of buildings and civil engineering works in timber (solid timber, sawn, planed or in pole form, glued laminated timber or wood-based structural products, e.g. LVL) or wood-based panels jointed together with adhesives or mechanical fasteners. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures and the basis of design and verification given in EN 1990:2002.

  2. P EN 1995 is only concerned with requirements for mechanical resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of timber structures. Other requirements, e.g concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not considered.

  3. EN 1995 is intended to be used in conjunction with:

    EN 1990:2002 Eurocode – Basis of design

    EN 1991 “Actions on structures”

    EN´s for construction products relevant to timber structures

    EN 1998 “Design of structures for earthquake resistance”, when timber structures are built in seismic regions

  4. EN 1995 is subdivided into various parts:

    EN 1995-1 General

    EN 1995-2 Bridges

  5. EN 1995-1 “General” comprises:

    EN 1995-1-1 General – Common rules and rules for buildings

    EN 1995-1-2 General rules – Structural Fire Design

  6. N 1995-2 refers to the common rules in EN 1995-1-1. The clauses in EN 1995-2 supplement the clauses in EN 1995-1.

1.1.2 Scope of EN 1995-1-1

  1. EN 1995-1-1 gives general design rules for timber structures together with specific design rules for buildings.

  2. The following subjects are dealt with in EN 1995-1-1:

    Section 1: General

    Section 2: Basis of design

    Section 3: Material properties

    Section 4: Durability

    Section 5: Basis of structural analysis

    Section 6: Ultimate limit states

    Section 7: Serviceability limit states

    Section 8: Connections with metal fasteners

    Section 9: Components and assemblies

    Section 10: Structural detailing and control.

  3. P EN 1995-1-1 does not cover the design of structures subject to prolonged exposure to temperatures over 60°C.
