Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Part 1-14: Design assisted by finite element analysis; German and English version prEN 1993-1-14:2023
Abstract
(1) This document gives principles and requirements for the use of numerical methods in the design of steel structures, more specifically for the ultimate limit state (including fatigue) and serviceability limit state verifications. It also gives principles and requirements for the application of advanced finite element (FE) and similar modelling techniques for numerical simulation which also covers safety assessment. (2) This document covers general methodologies such as the finite element method (FEM), finite strip method (FSM) or generalised beam theory (GBT) for modelling, analysis and design of steel structures made of the following members and joint configurations: a. hot-rolled profiles, b. cold-formed members and sheeting, c. welded plated profiles, d. stainless steel profiles, e. plate assemblies, f. shell structures, g. welded and bolted joints. In addition to the general design rules, specific additional rules can also be found in the relevant standard parts in EN 1993. (3) This document contains harmonized design rules in terms of the application of the numerical modelling methods, development of the numerical models, application of analysis types, result evaluation methods, and determination of the resistance of steel structures for different limit states
