Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the work necessary and underway for the next version of part 1-1- of Eurocode 3 on steel structures: EN 1993-1-1. The work is until now done by Working Group 1 of subcommittee CEN/TC250/SC3 and soon the Project Team will start working on the next version of EN 1993-1-1. WG1 collected a longlist of items that may need improvement and the recently carried out systematic review also yielded topics that need to be considered for the next version of EN 1993-1-1. The work of WG1 already resulted in amendments for EN 1993-1-1 which were accepted by CEN/TC250/SC3. It was decided to include these amendments in the next version of EN 1993-1-1, that is due in a few years. In this paper, an overview is given of the already accepted amendments. They concern among others several strength and stability related design rules.
