This commentary on DIN EN 1994-1-1 is aimed at all experts who are involved in the design, construction, testing or monitoring of composite structures made of steel and concrete. It provides support for the interpretation and application of the standard in engineering practice. Particular emphasis is placed on explaining the mechanical models on which the design rules are based, in order to enable proper application of the standard even for practical issues that are not covered by special application rules in Eurocode 4. The book is supplemented by a series of typical examples from structural engineering, so that the practitioner can familiarise himself with the code easily and quickly. In addition, an insight is given into the current state of discussion in the development of the regulations for the next generation of Eurocode 4 and important, expected changes and additions are pointed out.
