s
is measured parallel to the slope.
The slope is straight line between intersection points of flanges and web. (4) The developed height of a web is measured along its midline, including any web stiffeners. (5) The developed width of a flange is measured along its midline, including any intermediate stiffeners. (6) The thickness
t
is a steel design thickness (the steel core thickness extracted minus tolerance if needed as specified in clause 3.2.4), if not otherwise stated. 1.5.4 Convention for member axes (1) In general the conventions for members is as used in Part 1-1 of EN 1993, see Figure 1.7. yzzyuvvuyzzyuvvuyzzyuvvu Figure 1.7:

EN 1993-1-3: 2006 (E) 12
(3)P For verifications by calculation at ultimate limit states the partial factor gM shall be taken as follows:
- resistance of cross-sections to excessive yielding including local and distortional buckling:
gM0
- resistance of members and sheeting where failure is caused by global buckling: gM1
- resistance of net sections at fastener holes: gM2 NOTE: Numerical values for gMi may be defined in the National Annex.
The following numerical values are recommended for the use in buildings:
gM0 = 1,00;
gM1 = 1,00;
gM2 = 1,25. (4) For values of gM for resistance of connections, see Section 8. (5) For verifications at serviceability limit states the partial factor gM,ser should be used. NOTE: Numerical value for gM,ser may be defined in the National Annex.
The following numerical value is recommended for the use in buildings:
gM,ser = 1,00 . (6) For the design of structures made of cold formed members and sheeting a distinction should be made between “structural classes” associated with failure consequences according to EN 1990 – Annex B defined as follows: Structural Class I:
Construction where cold-formed members and sheeting are designed to contribute to the overall strength and stability of a structure; Structural Class II:
Construction where cold-formed members and sheeting are designed to contribute to the strength and stability of individual structural elements; Structural Class III:
Construction where cold-formed sheeting is used as an element that only transfers loads to the structure. NOTE 1:
During different construction stages different structural classes may be considered. NOTE 2: For requirements for execution of sheeting see EN 1090.

Materials 3.1 General (1) All steels used for cold-formed members and profiled sheets should be suitable for cold-forming and welding, if needed.
Steels used for members and sheets to be galvanized should also be suitable for galvanizing. (2) The nominal values of material properties given in this Section should be adopted as characteristic values in design calculations. (3) This part of EN 1993 covers the design of cold formed members and profiles sheets fabricated from steel material conforming to the steel grades listed in table 3.1a.

Material properties of base material (1) The nominal values of yield strength
fyb
or tensile strength
fu
should be obtained
a) either by adopting the values fy = Reh or Rp0,2 and fu = Rm direct from product standards, or b) by using the values given in Table 3.1a and b c) by appropriate tests. (2) Where the characteristic values are determined from tests, such tests should be carried out in accordance with EN 10002-1.
The number of test coupons should be at least
5
and should be taken from a lot in following way:
1. Coils: a. For a lot from one production (one pot of melted steel) at least one coupon per coil of
30% of
the number of coils;
b. For a lot from different productions at least one coupon per coil;
2. Strips:
At least one coupon per 2000 kg from one production. The coupons should be taken at random from the concerned lot of steel and the orientation should be in the length of the structural element.
The characteristic values should be determined on basis of a statistical evaluation in accordance with EN 1990 Annex D.
(3) It may be assumed that the properties of steel in compression are the same as those in tension. (4) The ductility requirements should comply with 3.2.2 of EN 1993-1-1. (5) The design values for material coefficients should be taken as given in 3.2.6 of EN 1993-1-1 (6) The material properties for elevated temperatures are given in EN 1993-1-2. 3.2.2
Material properties of cold formed sections and sheeting

fy
the average yield strength
fya
may be used if (4) to (8) apply.
In other cases the basic yield strength
fyb
should be used.
Where the yield strength is specified using the symbol

the basic yield strength
fyb
should be used. (2) The average yield strength
fya
of a cross-section due to cold working may be determined from the results of full size tests. (3) Alternatively the increased average yield strength
fya
may be determined by calculation using:

… (3.1) where:
Ag
is the gross cross-sectional area;
k
is a numerical coefficient that depends on the type of forming as follows:
- k
=
7
for roll forming;
- k
=
5
for other methods of forming;
n
is the number of
90°
bends in the cross-section with an internal radius
r £ 5t (fractions of 90°
bends should be counted as fractions of n);
t
is the design core thickness of the steel material before cold-forming, exclusive of metal and organic coatings, see 3.2.4. (4) The increased yield strength due to cold forming may be taken into account as follows:



EN 1993-1-3: 2006 (E) 16
- in axially loaded members in which the effective cross-sectional area
Aeff
equals the gross area
Ag;
- in determining
Aeff
the yield strength
fy
should be taken as
fyb . (5) The average yield strength
fya
may be utilised in determining:
- the cross-section resistance of an axially loaded tension member;
- the cross-section resistance and the buckling resistance of an axially loaded compression member with a
fully effective cross-section;
- the moment resistance of a cross-section with fully effective flanges. (6) To determine the moment resistance of a cross-section with fully effective flanges, the cross-section may be subdivided into
m
nominal plane elements, such as flanges.
Expression (3.1) may then be used to obtain values of increased yield strength
fy,i
separately for each nominal plane element
i, provided that:
yam1iig,iy,m1iig,fAfA£==
… (3.2) where:
Ag,i
is the gross cross-sectional area of nominal plane element i, and when calculating the increased yield strength
fy,i
using the expression (3.1) the bends on the edge of the nominal plane elements should be counted with the half their angle for each area
Ag,i. (7) The increase in yield strength due to cold forming should not be utilised for members that are subjected to heat treatment after forming at more than
580°C
for more than one hour. NOTE:
For further information see EN 1090, Part 2. (8) Special attention should be paid to the fact that some heat treatments (especially annealing) might induce a reduced yield strength lower than the basic yield strength
fyb . NOTE:
For welding in cold formed areas see also EN 1993-1-8. 3.2.3
Fracture toughness (1) See EN 1993-1-1 and EN 1993-1-10. 3.2.4 Thickness and thickness tolerances (1) The provisions for design by calculation given in this Part 1-3 of EN 1993 may be used for steel within given ranges of core thickness

If the negative tolerance is beyond "special tolerance (S)" given in EN 10143 then the design thickness according to (3.3b) may be used. (5) tnom is the nominal sheet thickness after cold forming. It may be taken as the value to tnom of the original sheet, if the calculative cross-sectional areas before and after cold forming do not differ more than 2%; otherwise the notional dimensions should be changed. 3.3 Connecting devices 3.3.1 Bolt assemblies (1) Bolts, nuts and washers should conform to the requirements given in EN 1993-1-8. 3.3.2 Other types of mechanical fastener (1)
