EN 13224:2011 (E) 4 Foreword This document (EN 13224:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 229 “Precast concrete products”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2013. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13224:2004+A1:2007. Significant technical changes compared to the previous version are: a) change in the scope to also cover elements with bottom slab (as shown in Annex A); b) deletion of the requirement on planarity (in 4.3.1.1 and 5.2); c) deletion of the requirement on camber or sag (in 4.3.1.1 and 5.2); d) addition of a rule for elements without shear reinforcement in 4.3.3.3; e) adoption of the new template for Annex ZA. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of the Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC) of the European Union (EU). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. This standard is one of a series of product standards for precast concrete products. For common aspects, reference is made to EN 13369: Common rules for precast products, from which also the relevant requirements of the EN 206-1: Concrete — Part 1: Specification, performances, production and conformity are taken. The references to EN 13369 by CEN/TC 229 product standards are intended to make them homogeneous and to avoid repetitions of similar requirements. Eurocodes are taken as a common reference for design aspects. The installation of some structural precast concrete products is dealt with by EN 13670:2009 Execution of concrete structures. In all countries it can be accompanied by alternatives for national application. The programme of standards for structural precast concrete products comprises the following standards, in some cases consisting of several parts:  EN 1168, Precast concrete products — Hollow core slabs  EN 12794, Precast concrete products — Foundation piles  EN 12843, Precast concrete products — Masts and poles SIST EN 13224:2012

EN 13224:2011 (E) 8 4 Requirements 4.1 Material requirements For general aspects, reinforcing and prestressing steel, inserts and connectors, the relevant subclauses of EN 13369:2004, 4.1 shall apply. For constituent materials of concrete EN 206-1 applies. In particular, the ultimate tensile and tensile yield strength of steel shall be considered. 4.2 Production requirements The production of precast ribbed elements shall comply with the requirements in EN 13369:2004, 4.2. NOTE In addition to EN 13369:2004, 4.2.2 for cast-in-situ concrete considered to act compositely with precast units in the structural resistance (e.g. structural top layer), the minimum strength class is C 20/25. In particular, the compressive strength of concrete shall be considered. For minor floor elements, strength classes shall comply with B.2.3. 4.3 Finished product requirements 4.3.1 Geometrical properties 4.3.1.1 Production tolerances Complementary to EN 13369:2004, 4.3.1.1 the following tolerances shall apply (Figure 1).

Figure 1 — Reference points for standard check of tolerances DIMENSION PERMITTED DEVIATION (mm) Skewness (θ) ± 15 Lateral bow (ε ) ± 10 or L/1 000 (whichever is greater) Angular deviation of ribs (δ) ± 15 Methods of measurements are given in 5.3. For prestressed elements the values of tolerance in lateral bow (ε) and angular deviation of ribs (δ) can be increased by 50 %; this includes the effect of prestressing tolerances. For minor floor elements according to Annex B, the permitted deviation on length is ± 25 mm. 4.3.1.2 Minimum dimensions EN 13369:2004, 4.3.1.2 shall apply. 4.3.1.3 Longitudinal connections If the precast units are connected along their longitudinal edges by means of a cast in situ mortar or concrete joint, the minimum joint width shall be at least 30 mm at the top to allow satisfactory casting. The joint face shall be provided with at least one groove. The size shall be appropriate with regard to the shear resistance of the grout. If tie bars are to be anchored within the joint, the joint width at the tie bar level shall be at least three times the diameter of the bar to enable a satisfactory bond and a complete encasing of the bar. If welded connections are used, the connection devices should be designed in order to allow an easy compensation of camber and erection deviations and welding execution. SIST EN 13224:2012



EN 13224:2011 (E) 10 4.3.1.4 Concrete cover For the protection against corrosion EN 13369:2004, 4.3.7 shall apply. For minor floor elements see Annex B. 4.3.2 Surface characteristics EN 13369:2004, 4.3.2 shall apply. 4.3.3 Mechanical resistance 4.3.3.1 General EN 13369:2004, 4.3.3.1 to 4.3.3.5 shall apply except 4.3.3.4. For minor floor elements see Annex B. For transverse distribution of loads see Annex E. For diaphragm actions see Annex F. 4.3.3.2 Transient situations For transient situations, EN 13369:2004, 4.3.3.6 shall apply. Unless compensating devices are used during lifting, each suspension point should be verified on the basis that only two are being active. In the erection phases in which the access of workers on the elements can be expected, the construction loads of EN 1991-1-6 shall be considered and the supports for safety devices shall withstand the appropriate horizontal force, placed in the most unfavourable position of the upper side of the protection rail. 4.3.3.3 Shear reinforcement It is allowed to omit the transversal shear reinforcement where it is not required by the resistance to loads or fire verification provided adjacent units are connected. At least the minimum shear reinforcement according to EN 1992-1-1:2004, 9.2.2 shall be provided in the anchorage zone of prestressing tendons, unless a greater area is required by the relevant verification. This minimum shear reinforcement is not required for ribbed elements used for roofs, provided the spalling stress in the webs is lower than the tensile strength of concrete at time of prestress release. In ribs with a thickness not exceeding 120 mm the shear reinforcement may be shaped in one leg only, placed in the middle plane of the rib and properly anchored beyond the main reinforcement. 4.3.3.4 Shear and negative moments In elements without shear reinforcement, negative moments and unintended restraining effects at the supports should be considered in the design of the elements and in the detailing of the connections at the supports in order to prevent possible restraint cracks which can initiate shear failure near the support. Two methods to deal with negative or unintended fixing moments are applicable:  detailing the connection in such a way that these negative moments will not occur; SIST EN 13224:2012



EN 13224:2011 (E) 11  design by calculations. Design methods to consider negative or unintended moments are given in Annex C. 4.3.3.5 Longitudinal shear EN 1992-1-1:2004, 6.2.4 shall apply. If the composite action with a cast on site topping is considered, the manufacturer shall declare the type of roughness of the surface according to EN 1992-1-1:2004, 6.2.5. 4.3.4 Resistance and reaction to fire 4.3.4.1 Resistance to fire Fire resistance dealing with load bearing capacity R, integrity E and insulation I of ribbed floor elements, expressed in terms of classes, shall be declared following EN 13369:2004, 4.3.4.1 and 4.3.4.2. Load bearing classification R by calculation can be carried out using the thermal maps given in Annex D. Load bearing classification R by tabulated data may be made on the basis of data given in EN 1992-1-2 using beam data for the ribs and slab data for the slab, respectively. NOTE If the option of tabulated data is selected, as they do not take into account the actual position of the reinforcement nor the actual load level, they usually lead to an over dimensioning of the cross section. 4.3.4.2 Reaction to fire For reaction to fire, EN 13369:2004, 4.3.4.4 shall apply. 4.3.5 Acoustic properties EN 13369:2004, 4.3.5 shall apply. 4.3.6 Thermal properties EN 13369:2004, 4.3.6 shall apply. 4.3.7 Durability EN 13369:2004, 4.3.7 shall apply. 4.3.8 Other requirements 4.3.8.1 Safety in handling EN 13369:2004, 4.3.8.1 shall apply. 4.3.8.2 Safety in use EN 13369:2004, 4.3.8.2 shall apply.

EN 13224:2011 (E) 14 Annex A (informative)
Examples of elements Some examples of cross-sections of precast elements considered in this document are shown in Figure A.1. The elements can be simply supported, or connected longitudinally on or with the supports, achieving total or partial continuity. They can also be designed with half joints at the ends, in order to reduce the total thickness. According to the different situations, the elements can be:  placed on site without transversal connections, eventually supporting secondary elements between them (isolated members);  provided with steel plates at their lateral edges to be connected together at their top flanges by welded shear connectors;  shaped in form of shear keys at their lateral edges to be connected together by cast in situ shear joints, and/or be provided with steel plates for welded connections on site;  provided with a cast in situ reinforced concrete topping. Such topping, if effectively restrained to the precast elements by bond, with or without steel reinforcement projecting from the elements, may be taken into account in the resistant section. Combinations of the preceding cases are also possible. According to the different arrangement of connections, the elements can be:  able to act as a diaphragm in order to transfer horizontal forces to the bracing elements (cases b), c), d) and a) if the secondary elements are adequately connected);  able to transfer vertical shear from heavier loaded elements to the surrounding ones (cases c), d) and b) if the welded connection is arranged in an appropriate way).

Minor floor elements B.1 General In view of their use as specified in B.2.1, minor floor elements may be designed in the lower consequences class of EN 1990:2002, B.3.1. In this case, they shall be in compliance with the additional requirements and special rules of this annex. Design, production and application of minor floor elements, according to these special rules, is only allowed if manufacturing takes place under strict production control. B.2 Additional requirements for minor floor elements B.2.1 General Minor floor elements are ribbed precast floor elements with limited dimensions, used only for a suspended floor with a maximum below air space of 1 000 mm between the floor and the ground, which are in compliance with the additional requirements of B.2.2 and B.2.3. NOTE According to consequences classes stated in 1990:2002, B.3.1, taking into account the use stated above, some special design rules are given for these products. Examples of some forms of minor floor elements are given in Figure B.1.
Figure B.1 — Possible forms of minor floor elements B.2.2 Dimensions Minor floor elements shall comply with the following dimensions (referred to the concrete-element, without thermal insulation): span of the elements ≤ 8 000 mm; height of the elements ≤ 400 mm; width of the ribs ≥ 60 mm; spacing between ribs ≤ 1 200 mm; SIST EN 13224:2012



EN 13224:2011 (E) 17 thickness of the slab:  for Lx ≤ 950 mm: ≥ 50 mm;  for Lx > 950 mm: ≥ Lx/15; cantilever (Lc) ≤ 600 mm; thickness of cantilever slab ≥ Lc/8 or 50 mm; for Lx and Lc: see Figure B.2. The span/height ratio of minor floor elements shall be such that the time dependent deformation due to the quasi-permanent loads shall not exceed 3/1 000 of the span. In case of stone-like (plaster or brittle finish or other non-flexible) partitions, the additional deflection (after the execution of partitions) shall not exceed 2/1 000 of the span.
