EN 1994 Eurocode 4 applies to the design of composite structures and members for buildings and other civil engineering works. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990 – Basis of structural design. EN Eurocode 4 is concerned with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of composite structures.
