1.1 Scope of EN 1995-1-3

(1) EN 1995-1-3 gives general design rules for timber-concrete composite structures.

(2) EN 1995-1-3 provides provisions for materials, design parameters, connections, detailing and execution for timber-concrete composite structures. Recommendations for environmental parameters (temperature and moisture content), design methods and test methods are given in the annexes.

(3) EN 1995-1-3 includes rules common to many types of timber-concrete composite but does not include details for the design of glued timber-concrete composites, nor for bridges.

NOTE For the design of glued timber-concrete composites or bridges alternative references are available.

(4) EN 1995-1-3 covers the design of timber-concrete composite structures in both quasi-constant and variable environmental conditions. For ease of use, it provides simple design rules for quasi-constant environmental conditions and more complex rules for variable environmental conditions.
