Abstract
In November 2022, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) published the Technical Specification CEN/TS 19101:2022, “Design of Fibre-Polymer Composite Structures”, which is a milestone towards the widespread application of composite materials in civil engineering structures. This paper gives an overview of the clauses about serviceability limit states (SLS) and the creep rupture verification at ultimate limit state (ULS). The SLS criteria include deflections, vibrations and matrix cracking verifications, which should consider the effects of environmental conditions and creep effects. The creep rupture of composite members and components is prevented by limiting the magnitudes of sustained stresses, using relevant quasi-permanent combinations of actions.
