SECTION 2 BASIS OF DESIGN
2.1 Requirements
2.1.1 Basic requirements
(1)P The design of concrete structures shall be in accordance with the general rules
given in
EN 1990.
(2)P The supplementary provisions for concrete structures given in this section shall
also be
applied.
(3) The basic requirements of EN 1990 Section 2 are deemed to be satisfied for
concrete
structures when the following are applied together:
- limit state design in conjunction with the partial factor method in accordance with
EN 1990,
- actions in accordance with EN 1991,
- combination of actions in accordance with EN 1990 and
- resistances, durability and serviceability in accordance with this Standard.
Note: Requirements for fire resistance (see EN 1990 Section 5 and EN 1992-1-2) may dictate a greater
size of
member than that required for structural resistance at normal temperature.
