European Standard EN 1995-1-2, Design of timber structures – General rules – Structural fire design, has been prepared on behalf of Technical Committee CEN/TC250 “ Structural Eurocodes”, the Secretariat of which is held by BSI CEN/TC250 is responsible for all Structural Eurocodes The text of the draft standard was submitted to the formal vote and was approved by CEN as EN 1995-1-2 on YYYY-MM-DD No existing European Standard is superseded Background of the Eurocode programme In 1975, the Commission of the European Community decided on an action programme in the field of construction, based on article 95 of the Treaty The objective of the programme was the elimination of technical obstacles to trade and the harmonisation of technical specifications Within this action programme, the Commission took the initiative to establish a set of harmonised technical rules for the design of construction works which, in a first stage, would serve as an alternative to the national rules in force in the Member States and, ultimately, would replace them For fifteen years, the Commission, with the help of a Steering Committee with Representatives of Member States, conducted the development of the Eurocodes programme, which led to the first generation of European codes in the 1980’s In 1989, the Commission and the Member States of the EU and EFTA decided, on the basis of an agreement1 between the Commission and CEN, to transfer the preparation and the publication of the Eurocodes to the CEN through a series of Mandates, in order to provide them with a future status of European Standard (EN) This links de facto the Eurocodes with the provisions of all the Council’s Directives and/or Commission’s Decisions dealing with European standards (e.g the Council Directive 89/106/EEC on construction products - CPD and Council Directives 93/37/EEC, 92/50/EEC and 89/440/EEC on public works and services and equivalent EFTA Directives initiated in pursuit of setting up the internal market) The Structural Eurocode programme comprises the following standards generally consisting of a number of Parts: EN 1990 EN 1991 EN 1992 EN 1993 EN 1994 EN 1995 EN 1996 EN 1997 EN 1998 EN 1999 Eurocode : Eurocode 1: Eurocode 2: Eurocode 3: Eurocode 4: Eurocode 5: Eurocode 6: Eurocode 7: Eurocode 8: Eurocode 9: Basis of Structural Design Actions on structures Design

for earthquake resistance Design of aluminium structures Agreement between the Commission of the European Communities and the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) concerning the work on EUROCODES for the design of building and civil engineering works (BC/CEN/03/89) prEN 1995-1-2 Final draft (Stage 34) Page Date: 2001-10-16 Eurocode standards recognise the responsibility of regulatory authorities in each Member State and have safeguarded their right to determine values related to regulatory safety matters at national level where these continue to vary from State to State Status and field of application of Eurocodes The Member States of the EU and EFTA recognise that EUROCODES serve as reference documents for the following purposes: as a means to prove compliance of building and civil engineering works with the essential requirements of Council Directive 89/106/EEC, particularly Essential Requirement N°1 – Mechanical resistance and stability – and Essential Requirement N°2 – Safety in case of fire; as a basis for specifying contracts for construction works and related engineering services; as a framework for drawing up harmonised technical specifications for construction products (ENs and ETAs) The Eurocodes, as far as they concern the construction works themselves, have a direct relationship with the Interpretative Documents2 referred to in Article 12 of the CPD, although they are of a different nature from harmonised product standards3 Therefore, technical aspects arising from the Eurocodes work need to be adequately considered by CEN Technical Committees and/or EOTA Working Groups working on product standards with a view to achieving a full compatibility of these technical specifications with the Eurocodes The Eurocode standards provide common structural design rules for everyday use for the design of whole structures and component products of both a traditional and an innovative nature Unusual forms of construction or design conditions are not specifically covered and additional expert consideration will be required by the designer in such cases National Standards implementing Eurocodes The National Standards implementing Eurocodes will comprise the full text of the Eurocode (including any annexes), as published by CEN, which may be preceded by a National title page and National Foreword, and may be followed by a National Annex The National annex may only contain information on those parameters which are left open in the Eurocode for national choice, known as Nationally Determined Parameters, to be used for the design of buildings and civil engineering works to be constructed in the country concerned, i.e.: – values and/or classes where alternatives are given in the Eurocode, – values to be used where a symbol only is given in the Eurocode, – country specific data (geographical, climatic, etc.), e.g snow map, – the procedure to be used where alternative procedures are given in the Eurocode According to Art 3.3 of the CPD, the essential requirements (ERs) shall be given concrete form in interpretative documents for the creation of the necessary links between the essential requirements and the mandates for harmonised ENs and ETAGs/ETAs According to Art 12 of the CPD the interpretative documents shall : a) give concrete form to the essential requirements by harmonising the terminology and the technical bases and indicating classes or levels for each requirement where necessary ; b) indicate methods of correlating these classes or levels of requirement with the technical specifications, e.g methods of calculation and of proof, technical rules for project design, etc ; c) serve as a reference for the establishment of harmonised standards and guidelines for European technical approvals The Eurocodes, de facto, play a similar role in the field of the ER and a part of ER prEN 1995-1-2 Final draft (Stage 34) Page Date: 2001-10-16 It may also contain – decisions on the application of informative annexes, – references to non-contradictory complementary information to assist the user to apply the Eurocode Links between Eurocodes and harmonised technical specifications (ENs and ETAs) for products There is a need for consistency between the harmonised technical specifications for construction products and the technical rules for works4 Furthermore, all the information accompanying the CE Marking of the construction products which refer to Eurocodes shall clearly mention which Nationally Determined Parameters have been taken into account Additional information specific to EN 1995-1-2 EN 1995-1-2 describes the principles, requirements and rules for the structural design of buildings exposed to fire, including the following aspects Safety requirements EN 199x-1-2 is intended for clients (e.g for the formulation of their specific requirements), designers, contractors and relevant authorities The general objectives of fire protection are to limit risks with respect to the individual and society, neighbouring property, and where required, directly exposed property, in the case of fire Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC gives the following essential requirement for the limitation of fire risks: "The construction works must be designed and build in such a way, that in the event of an outbreak of fire − the load bearing resistance of the construction can be assumed for a specified period of time; − the generation and spread of fire and smoke within the works are limited; − the spread of fire to neighbouring construction works is limited; − the occupants can leave the works or can be rescued by other means; − the safety of rescue teams is taken into consideration" According to the Interpretative Document "Safety in Case of Fire5" the essential requirement may be observed by following various possibilities for fire safety strategies prevailing in the Member States like conventional fire scenarios (nominal fires) or natural fire scenarios (parametric fires), including passive and/or active fire protection measures The fire parts of Structural Eurocodes deal with specific aspects of passive fire protection in terms of designing structures and parts thereof for adequate load bearing resistance and for limiting fire spread as relevant Required functions and levels of performance can be specified either in terms of nominal (standard) fire resistance rating, generally given in National fire regulations, or by referring to the fire safety engineering for assessing passive and active measures see Art.3.3 and Art.12 of the CPD, as well as clauses 4.2, 4.3.1, 4.3.2 and 5.2 of ID see clauses 2.2, 3.2(4) and 4.2.3.3 prEN 1995-1-2 Final draft (Stage 34) Page Date: 2001-10-16 Supplementary requirements concerning, for example the possible installation and maintenance of sprinkler systems; conditions on occupancy of building or fire compartment; the use of approved insulation and coating materials, including their maintenance are not given in this document, because they are subject to specification by the competent authority Numerical values for partial factors and other reliability elements are given as recommended values that provide an acceptable level of reliability They have been selected assuming that an appropriate level of workmanship and of quality management applies Design procedure A full analytical procedure for structural fire design would take into account the behaviour of the structural system at elevated temperatures, the potential heat exposure and the beneficial effects of active fire protection systems, together with the uncertainties associated with these three features and the importance of the structure (consequences of failure) At the present time it is possible to undertake a procedure for determining adequate performance which incorporates some, if not all, of these parameters, and to demonstrate that the structure, or its components, will give adequate performance in a real building fire However, where the procedure is based on a nominal (standard) fire the classification system , which call for specific periods of fire resistance, takes into account (though not explicitly), the features and uncertainties described above Application of this Part 1-2 of EN 1995 is illustrated below The prescriptive and performance-based approach are identified The prescriptive approach uses nominal fires to generate thermal actions The performance-based approach, using fire safety engineering, refers to thermal actions based on physical and chemical parameters prEN 1995-1-2 Final draft (Stage 34) Page Date: 2001-10-16 Project design Prescriptive rules (Thermal actions given by nominal fire curves) Performance-based Code (Physically based

Load-bearing floor joists and wall studs C.1 Residual cross section (1) This annex deals with the load-bearing function of timber frame wall and floor assemblies consisting of timber members (studs or joists) clad with panels on the fire-exposed side for a standard fire exposure of not more than 60 minutes The following assumptions apply: − the cavities are filled with insulation made of rock or glass fibre; − the studs are braced against buckling in the plane of the wall and against torsional buckling by means of panels on the unexposed side or by noggins; − for walls, the cladding may also be fixed to steel channels with a maximum depth 25 mm which are perpendicular to the direction of the timber joists; − the separating function is verified according to 5.3 (2) The notional residual cross section may be determined according to figure C.1 where the notional charring depth is given by expression (3.2) h dchar,n b Key: Notional residual cross section Notional char layer Figure C.1 —

be assumed to take place at the time tf (8) For claddings made of wood-based panels, the time of start of charring tch should be determined as t ch = t f (C.6) where the failure time tf should be calculated according to 3.3.3(6) (9) For claddings made of gypsum plasterboard of type A, H or F, the time of start of charring may be determined according to 3.3.3(7) (10) For claddings made of gypsum plasterboard type A or H, the failure time should be taken as t f = t ch (11) For claddings made of gypsum plasterboard type F, failure times should be determined with respect to − thermal degradation of the cladding − pull-out failure of fasteners due to insufficient penetration length into unburned wood (12) The failure time due to the thermal degradation of the cladding should be assessed on the basis of tests NOTE: More information on test methods is given in EN 1363-1, EN 1365-1 and EN 1365-2 (13) The failure time tf of panels with respect to pull-out failure of fasteners
