DIN EN 1996-1-1:2006 Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 1-1: General rules for reinforced and unreinforced masonry structures; German version EN 1996-1-1:2005
1.1.1 Scope of Eurocode 6
(1)P Eurocode 6 applies to the design of buildings and civil engineering works, or parts thcreof, in
unreinforced, reinforced, prestressed and confined masonry.
(2)P Eurocode 6 deals only with the requirements for resistance, serviceability and durability of
structures. Other requirements, for example, concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not
considered.
(3)P Execution is covered to the extent that is necessary to indicate the quality of the construction
materials and products that should be used and the standard of workmanship on site needed to
comply with the assumptions made in the design rules.
(4)P Eurocode 6 does not cover the special requirements of seismic design. Provisions related to such
requirements are given ill Eurocode 8 which complcments, and is consistent with Eurocode 6.
(5)P Numerical values of the actions on buildings and civil engineering works to be taken into
account in the design are not given in Eurocode 6. They are provided in Eurocode 1.
i.1.2 Scope of Part I-! of Eurocode 6
(1)P Thc basis for the design of buildings and civil engineering works in masonry is given in this
Part 1-I of Eurocode 6, which deals with unreinforced masonry and reintbrced masonry where the
reinforcement is added to provide ductility, strength or improve serviceability. The principles of the
design of prestressed masonry and confined masonry are given, but application rules are not provided.
This Part is not valid tbr masonry with a plan area of less than 0,04 m2.
(2) For those types of structures not covered entirely, for new structural uses for established materials
for new materials, or where actions and other influences outside normal experience have to be
resisted, the principles and application rules given in this EN may be applicable, but may need to be
supplemented.
(3) Part 1-1 gives detailed rules which are mainly applicable to ordinary buildings. The applicability
of these rules may be limited, for practical reasons or due to simplifications; any limits of
applicability are given in the text where necessary.
(4)P The following subjects are dealt with in Part 1-1:
-- section i: General;
-- section 2: Basis of design;
section 3: Materials;
section 4: Durability;
-- section 5: Structural analysis;
-- section 6: Ultimate Limit State;
-- section 7: Serviceability Limit State;
-- section 8: Detailing;
-- section 9: Execution;
(5)P Part l-I does not cover:
-- resistance to fire (which is dealt with in EN 1996-1-2);
-- particular aspects of special types of building (for example, dynamic effects on tall buildings);
-- particular aspects of special types of civil engineering works (such as masonry bridges, dams,
chimneys or liquid-retaining structures);
-- particular aspects of special types of structures (such as arches or domes);
-- masonry where gypsum, with or without cement, mortars are used;
-- masonry where the units are not laid in a regular pattern of courses (rubble masonry);
--masonry reinforced with other materials than steel.
