Eurocode 1 - Actions on structures - Part 1-6: Actions during execution

An unexpected error occurred.
Edition date: 2026-03-18
In Force
Available languages: French, English
Summary: 1.1 Scope of prEN 1991-1-6 (1) prEN 1991-1-6 provides guidance and general rules on the determination of actions relevant for the design of buildings and civil engineering works, including geotechnical structures, for their execution stage. NOTE Actions for design during execution include those that only arise from execution activities and act during execution, termed construction actions (for example personnel and hand tools, auxiliary structures, equipment and elements used during execution), and others that are present during the service life of the completed structure (for example self-weight, wind, etc.) but which can act differently and/or have different values during execution. (2) prEN 1991-1-6 provides guidance and general rules for the determination of actions for the design of auxiliary structures, elements and equipment used during execution in case they are designed to the Eurocodes and not to other European Standards. NOTE Other European Standards (e.g. EN 12810, EN 12811, EN 12812) provide specific rules for certain types of auxiliary structures, equipment and elements used during execution. (3) prEN 1991-1-6 gives rules for buildings and bridges during execution to supplement the provisions in EN 1990. NOTE For combination rules for execution, see EN 1990. 1.2 Assumptions (1) The general assumptions given in EN 1990 apply. (2) The application of this document follows the limit state principle and is based on the partial factor method, unless explicitly prescribed differently. (3) The verification of buildings and civil engineering structures in transient design situations is undertaken in accordance with the Eurocodes, accounting for the interaction with any auxiliary structures, elements and/or equipment. (4) When using European product standards covering auxiliary structures, equipment and elements used during execution, it is assumed that the design basis, design requirements and, if provided, the safety and operational design limits specified in these product standards are taken into account. (5) Adequate planning, documentation, communication, control and supervision are provided during execution, involving all relevant parties. NOTE Execution of a structure can involve interaction between several parties from diverse engineering fields, responsible for the design, fabrication, transportation and execution of different subsystems used during the execution of a structure.

1.1 Domaine d'application du prEN 1991-1-6 (1) Le prEN 1991-1-6 fournit des recommandations et des règles générales concernant la détermination des actions pertinentes pour la conception des bâtiments et autres ouvrages de génie civil, y compris les structures géotechniques, à leur stade d'exécution. NOTE Les actions pour le calcul en cours d'exécution comprennent celles qui découlent uniquement des activités d'exécution et qui agissent pendant l'exécution, appelées actions de construction (par exemple, le personnel et le petit outillage, les structures, équipements et éléments auxiliaires utilisés pendant l'exécution), ainsi que les autres actions présentes pendant la durée d'utilisation de la structure complète (par exemple, le poids propre, le vent, etc.), mais qui peuvent agir différemment et/ou posséder des valeurs différentes pendant l'exécution. (2) Le prEN 1991-1-6 fournit des recommandations et des règles générales concernant la détermination des actions pour le calcul des structures, éléments et équipements auxiliaires utilisés pendant l'exécution dans le cas où ils sont calculés conformément aux Eurocodes et non pas à d'autres Normes européennes. NOTE D'autres Normes européennes (par exemple l'EN 12810, l'EN 12811 et l'EN 12812) fournissent des règles spécifiques pour certains types de structures, équipements et éléments auxiliaires utilisés pendant l'exécution. (3) Le prEN 1991-1-6 spécifie les règles applicables aux bâtiments et ponts en cours d'exécution en complément des dispositions de l'EN 1990. NOTE Pour les règles de combinaison pour l'exécution, voir l'EN 1990. 1.2 Hypothèses (1) Les hypothèses générales données dans l'EN 1990 s'appliquent. (2) L'application du présent document suit le principe de l'état-limite et repose sur la méthode des coefficients partiels, sauf exigence différente explicite. (3) La vérification des bâtiments et structures de génie civil en situation de projet transitoire est réalisée conformément aux Eurocodes, en tenant compte des interactions avec les structures, éléments et/ou équipements auxiliaires. (4) Lors de l'utilisation de Normes de produit européennes couvrant les structures, équipements et éléments auxiliaires utilisés pendant l'exécution, il est pris comme hypothèse que la base de calcul, les exigences de calcul et, si elles sont précisées, les limites de calcul de sécurité et de fonctionnement prises en compte sont celles spécifiées dans ces normes de produit. (5) Une planification, une documentation, une communication, un contrôle et une supervision adéquats sont fournis pendant l'exécution, en impliquant toutes les parties concernées. NOTE L'exécution d'une structure peut impliquer des interactions entre plusieurs parties issues de domaines d'ingénierie divers, qui sont responsables de la conception, de la fabrication, du transport et de l'exécution des différents sous-systèmes utilisés pendant l'exécution d'une structure.

1.1 Anwendungsbereich von prEN 1991-1-6 (1) prEN 1991 1 6 enthält Hilfestellungen und allgemeine Regelungen zur Bestimmung der Einwirkungen, die bei der Bemessung von Gebäuden, Ingenieurbauwerken und geotechnischen Bauwerken hinsichtlich ihrer Bauausführung zu berücksichtigen sind. ANMERKUNG Im Hinblick auf die Bemessung zählen zu den Einwirkungen während der Bauausführung diejenigen, die sich ausschließlich aus Bauausführungstätigkeiten ergeben und während der Bauausführung einwirken, sogenannte baubedingte Einwirkungen (z. B. Personal und Handwerkzeuge, Hilfskonstruktionen, ausrüstungsgegenstände und bauelemente, die während der Bauausführung verwendet werden), sowie sonstige Einwirkungen, die während der Betriebslebensdauer des fertiggestellten Bauwerks bestehen (z. B. Eigengewicht, Wind usw.), die jedoch unterschiedlich wirken können und/oder unterschiedliche Werte während der Bauausführung aufweisen. (2) prEN 1991 1 6 enthält Hilfestellungen und allgemeine Regeln zur Bestimmung der Einwirkungen, zur Bemessung von Hilfskonstruktionen, bauelementen und ausrüstungsgegenständen, die während der Bauausführung verwendet werden, für den Fall, dass ihre Bemessung nach den Eurocodes und nicht nach anderen Europäischen Normen erfolgt. ANMERKUNG Andere Europäische Normen (z. B. EN 12810, EN 12811, EN 12812) enthalten spezifische Regeln für bestimmte Arten von Hilfskonstruktionen, ausrüstungsgegenständen und bauelementen, die während der Bauausführung verwendet werden. (3) prEN 1991 1 6 enthält Regeln für Gebäude und Brücken während der Bauausführung, zur Ergänzung der Bestimmungen nach EN 1990. ANMERKUNG Für Kombinationsregeln bei der Bauausführung siehe EN 1990. 1.2 Annahmen (1) Es gelten die allgemeinen Annahmen nach EN 1990. (2) Die Anwendung dieses Dokuments erfolgt nach dem Konzept der Bemessung nach Grenzzuständen und basiert auf dem Nachweisverfahren mit Teilsicherheitsbeiwerten, sofern nicht ausdrücklich eine andere Festlegung getroffen wurde. (3) Der Nachweis von Gebäuden und Ingenieurbauwerken in vorübergehenden Bemessungssituationen erfolgt in Übereinstimmung mit den Eurocodes unter Berücksichtigung der Wechselwirkung mit allen Hilfskonstruktionen, bauelementen und/oder ausrüstungsgegenständen. (4) Bei der Anwendung europäischer Produktnormen zu Hilfskonstruktionen, ausrüstungsgegenständen und bauelementen, die während der Bauausführung verwendet werden, wird angenommen, dass die Bemessungsgrundlage, die Anforderungen an die Bemessung und, falls vorhanden, die in diesen Produktnormen festgelegten Grenzwerte der sicherheits- und betriebsbezogenen Bemessung berücksichtigt werden. (5) Während der Bauausführung werden angemessene Planung, Dokumentation, Kommunikation, Steuerung und Überwachung unter Einbeziehung aller beteiligten Parteien bereitgestellt. ANMERKUNG Die Bauausführung eines Bauwerks kann das Zusammenwirken mehrerer Parteien aus verschiedenen Bereichen des Ingenieurwesens einschließen, die für die Bemessung, Fertigung, den Transport und die Ausführung unterschiedlicher Teilsysteme, die während der Bauausführung verwendet werden, verantwortlich sind.
