Eurocode 8 - Design of structures for earthquake resistance - Part 1-1: General rules and seismic action

1.1   Scope of prEN 1998-1-1
(1)   This document is applicable to the design and verification of buildings and other structures in seismic regions. It gives general rules relevant to all types of structures, with the exception of special structures.
NOTE   Special structures belong to consequence class CC4, which is not fully covered by the Eurocodes. The categories of structures of consequence class CC4 where EN 1998, or parts of it, apply in a country can be provided by the relevant Authorities or can be found in the National Annex.
(2)   This document provides basic performance requirements and compliance criteria applicable to buildings and civil engineering works in seismic regions.
(3)   This document gives rules for the representation of seismic actions and the description of the design seismic situations. Certain types of structures, dealt with in other parts of EN 1998, need supplementary rules which are given in those relevant Parts.
(4)   This document contains general methods for structural analysis and verification under seismic actions, including base-isolated structures and structures with distributed dissipative systems.
(5)   This document 1 contains rules for modelling and verification of ultimate strengths and deformations.
1.2   Assumptions
(1)   The general assumptions of prEN 1990:2021, 1.2, are supplemented as given in (2) to (6).
(2)   It is assumed that no change in the structure and in the masses carried by the structure will take place during the construction phase or during the subsequent life of the structure with respect to the design unless proper justification and verification is provided. This applies to ancillary elements as well (see 3.1.2). Due to the specific nature of the seismic response, this applies even in the case of changes that lead to an increase of the structural resistance.
(3)   The design documents are assumed to indicate the sizes, the details and the properties of the materials of the structural members. If appropriate, the design documents are also assumed to include the properties of special devices to be used and the distances between structural and ancillary elements. The necessary quality control provisions are assumed to be specified.
(4)   Members of special structural importance requiring special checking during construction are assumed to be identified on the design documents. In this case, the verification methods to be used are also assumed to be specified.
(5)   In case of high seismic action class (4.1.1(4)), formal quality system plans, covering design, construction, and use, additional to the control procedures prescribed in the other relevant Eurocodes, are assumed to be specified.

Eurocode 8 - Auslegung von Bauwerken gegen Erdbeben - Teil 1-1: Grundlagen und Erdbebeneinwirkung

1.1   Anwendungsbereich von prEN 1998 1 1
(1) Dieses Dokument gilt für die Bemessung und den Nachweis von Hochbauten und anderen Bauwerken in Erdbebengebieten. Es enthält allgemeine Regeln, die für alle Bauwerksarten, mit Ausnahme von Spezialbauwerken, maßgebend sind.
ANMERKUNG   Spezialbauwerke gehören der Versagensfolgeklasse CC4 an, die von den Eurocodes nicht vollständig abgedeckt wird. Die Bauwerkskategorien der Versagensfolgeklasse CC4, für die EN 1998 oder Teile davon in einem Land gelten, können von den zuständigen Behörden angegeben oder im Nationalen Anhang enthalten sein.
(2) Dieses Dokument enthält die grundlegenden Leistungsanforderungen und die Übereinstimmungskriterien, die für Hoch- und Ingenieurbauten in Erdbebengebieten gelten.
(3) Dieses Dokument enthält Regeln für die Darstellung von Erdbebeneinwirkungen und die Beschreibung von Bemessungssituationen mit Erdbebeneinwirkungen. Für bestimmte Tragwerksarten, die in anderen Teilen von EN 1998 behandelt werden, sind ergänzende Regeln erforderlich, die in diesen einschlägigen Teilen enthalten sind.
(4) Dieses Dokument enthält allgemeine Verfahren für die statische Berechnung und den Nachweis unter Erdbebeneinwirkungen, einschließlich schwingungsisolierter Bauwerke und dissipativer dezentraler Anlagen.
(5) Dieses Dokument enthält Regeln für die Modellierung und den Nachweis von Bruchfestigkeiten und Bruchverformungen.
1.2   Voraussetzungen
(1) Die allgemeinen Voraussetzungen von prEN 1990:2021, 1.2, werden durch (2) bis (6) ergänzt.
(2) Es wird vorausgesetzt, dass die Bemessung des Tragwerks und der vom Tragwerk getragenen Massen weder in der Bauphase noch während seiner Lebensdauer geändert wird, es sei denn, es wird eine geeignete Begründung und ein ebensolcher Nachweis geliefert. Dies gilt auch für nichttragende Bauteile (siehe 3.1.2). Wegen der besonderen Art der Erdbebenantwort gilt dies sogar im Fall von Änderungen, die eine Erhöhung des Tragwiderstands bewirken.
(3) Es wird vorausgesetzt, dass die Bauunterlagen die Abmessungen, die Einzelheiten und die Eigenschaften der für tragende Bauteile verwendeten Werkstoffe enthalten. Gegebenenfalls wird auch vorausgesetzt, dass die Bauunterlagen die Eigenschaften von anzuwendenden besonderen Vorrichtungen und die Abstände zwischen tragenden und nichttragenden Bauteilen enthalten. Es wird vorausgesetzt, dass die für die Güteüberwachung erforderlichen Vorschriften festgelegt sind.
(4) Es wird vorausgesetzt, dass Bauteile von besonderer Bedeutung für das Tragverhalten, bei denen eine besondere Überprüfung während der Bauausführung notwendig ist, auf den Bauzeichnungen ausgewiesen sind. In diesem Fall wird auch vorausgesetzt, dass die anzuwendenden Nachweisverfahren festgelegt sind.
(5) Im Fall einer Klasse mit hohen Erdbebeneinwirkungen (4.1.1(4)) wird vorausgesetzt, dass formale Qualitätssicherungssysteme für die Bemessung, die Bauausführung und die Nutzung zusätzlich zu den in den anderen einschlägigen Eurocodes vorgeschriebenen Kontrollverfahren festgelegt sind.

Eurocode 8 - Calcul des structures pour leur résistance aux séismes - Partie 1-1 : Règles générales et action sismique

1.1   Domaine d'application du prEN 1998-1-1
(1)   Le présent document s'applique au dimensionnement et à la vérification des bâtiments et autres structures dans les régions sismiques. Il énonce des règles générales applicables à tous les types de structures, à l'exception des structures spéciales.
NOTE   Les structures spéciales appartiennent à la classe de conséquence CC4, qui n'est pas entièrement couverte par les Eurocodes. Les catégories de structures de la classe de conséquences CC4 pour lesquelles l'EN 1998, ou des parties de celle-ci, s'applique dans un pays peuvent être fournies par les autorités compétentes ou figurent dans l'Annexe Nationale.
(2)   Le présent document contient les exigences de performance de base et les critères de conformité applicables aux bâtiments et aux ouvrages de génie civil en région sismique.
(3)   Le présent document donne des règles pour la représentation des actions sismiques et la description des situations sismiques de calcul. Certains types de structure, abordées d'autres parties de l'EN 1998, nécessitent des règles complémentaires qui sont données dans ces parties.
(4)   Le présent document contient des méthodes générales pour l'analyse et la vérification des structures soumises à des actions sismiques, y compris les structures sur appuis parasismiques et les structures avec des systèmes dissipatifs distribués.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1998-1-1:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 250
“Structural Eurocodes”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. CEN/TC 250 is responsible for all
Structural Eurocodes and has been assigned responsibility for structural and geotechnical design
matters by CEN.
This document will supersede EN 1998-1:2004.
The first generation of EN Eurocodes was published between 2002 and 2007. This document forms part
of the second generation of the Eurocodes, which have been prepared under Mandate M/515 issued to
CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
The Eurocodes have been drafted to be used in conjunction with relevant execution, material, product
and test standards, and to identify requirements for execution, materials, products and testing that are
relied upon by the Eurocodes.
The Eurocodes recognize the responsibility of each Member State and have safeguarded their right to
determine values related to regulatory safety matters at national level through the use of National
Annexes.

0 Introduction
0.1 Introduction to the Eurocodes
The Structural Eurocodes comprise the following standards generally consisting of a number of Parts:
— EN 1990 Eurocode: Basis of structural and geotechnical design
— EN 1991 Eurocode 1: Actions on structures
— EN 1992 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures
— EN 1993 Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures
— EN 1994 Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures
— EN 1995 Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures
— EN 1996 Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures
— EN 1997 Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design
— EN 1998 Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance
— EN 1999 Eurocode 9: Design of aluminium structures
— New parts are under development, e.g. Eurocode for design of structural glass
The Eurocodes are intended for use by designers, clients, manufacturers, constructors, relevant
authorities (in exercising their duties in accordance with national or international regulations),
educators, software developers, and committees drafting standards for related product, testing and
execution standards.
NOTE Some aspects of design are most appropriately specified by relevant authorities or, where not specified,
can be agreed on a project-specific basis between relevant parties such as designers and clients. The Eurocodes
identify such aspects making explicit reference to relevant authorities and relevant parties.
0.2 Introduction to EN 1998 Eurocode 8
The scope of EN 1998 is to define the rules for the seismic design of new buildings and engineering
works and the assessment and retrofit of existing ones, including geotechnical aspects, as well as
temporary structures.
NOTE This standard also covers the verification of structures in the seismic situation during construction,
when required.
Attention should be paid to the fact that, for the design of structures in seismic regions, the provisions
of EN 1998 should be applied in addition to the relevant provisions of EN 1990 to EN 1997 and
EN 1999. In particular, EN 1998 should be applied to structures of consequence classes CC1, CC2 and
CC3, as defined in prEN 1990:2021, 4.3. Structures of consequence class CC4 are not fully covered by
the Eurocodes but may be required to follow EN 1998, or parts of it, by the relevant Authorities.
By nature, perfect protection (a null seismic risk) against earthquakes is not feasible in practice, in
particular because the knowledge of the hazard itself is characterized by a significant uncertainty.
Therefore, in Eurocode 8, the seismic action is represented in a conventional form, proportional in
amplitude to earthquakes likely to occur at a given location and representative of their frequency
content. This representation is not the prediction of a particular seismic movement, and such a
movement could give rise to more severe effects than those of the seismic action considered, inflicting
damage greater than the one described by the Limit States contemplated in this Standard.

oSIST prEN 1998-1-1:2022
prEN 1998-1-1:2022 (E)
Not only the seismic action cannot be predicted but, in addition, it should be recognized that
engineering methods are not perfectly predictive when considering the effects of this specific action,
under which structures are assumed to respond in the non-linear regime. Such uncertainties are taken
into account according to the general framework of EN 1990, with a residual risk of underestimation of
their effects.
Further Parts of EN 1998 include, in addition to prEN 1998-1-1, the following:
— prEN 1998-1-2 contains specific provisions relevant to buildings;
— EN 1998-2 contains specific provisions relevant to bridges;
— EN 1998-3 contains provisions for the seismic assessment and retrofitting of existing buildings and
bridges;
— EN 1998-4 contains specific provisions relevant to silos, tanks, pipelines, towers, masts and
chimneys;
— EN 1998-5 contains specific provisions relevant to foundations, retaining structures and
geotechnical aspects.
0.3 Introduction to prEN 1998-1-1
prEN 1998-1-1 contains general requirements for all types of structures for earthquake resistant
design, including definition of the seismic action and the description of the methods of analysis and
verification, in general terms.
Nevertheless, the definition of the seismic action allows adaptation to a local specific seismic context
through Nationally Determined Parameters (NDP) defined by the National Authorities or in the
National Annex or through a site-specific description.
prEN 1998-1-1 is subdivided in seven clauses and includes the following annexes, where Annexes B to E
and G are normative and Annexes A and F are informative:
— Annex A: European hazard maps;
— Annex B: Alternative identification of site categories;
— Annex C: Site-specific elastic response spectra;
— Annex D: Criteria for selection and scaling of input motions;
— Annex E: Determination of target displacement and limit-state spectral acceleration by using a non-
linear response-history analysis of an equivalent SDOF model;
— Annex F: Simplified reliability-based verification format;
— Annex G: Design of fastenings to concrete in the seismic design situation.
0.4 Verbal forms used in the Eurocodes
The verb “shall” expresses a requirement strictly to be followed and from which no deviation is
permitted in order to comply with the Eurocodes.
The verb “should” expresses a highly recommended choice or course of action. Subject to national
regulation and/or any relevant contractual provisions, alternative approaches could be used/adopted
where technically justified.
The verb “may" expresses a course of action permissible within the limits of the Eurocodes.
The verb “can" expresses possibility and capability; it is used for statements of fact and clarification of
concepts.
