Abstract
Abstract The article presents the current status of the revision of EN 1993‐1‐11 with regard to the design of saddles and clamps for ropes or for parallel wire tension components for suspended structures. The focus here is on presenting a general approach for clamps. For saddles, emphasis is on types where the slip resistance is – in addition to the component from deviation forces – increased by clamping forces, although general aspects are also covered. This part 2 deals with the geometrical requirements for clamps and in particular saddles and with the associated verification of the transverse pressure. Finally, testing is briefly discussed, with the emphasis on linking the design and the confirmation of the assumptions made thereby with the tests.
期刊介绍:
Steel Construction publishes peerreviewed papers covering the entire field of steel construction research. In the interests of "construction without depletion", it skilfully combines steel with other forms of construction employing concrete, glass, cables and membranes to form integrated steelwork systems. Since 2010 Steel Construction is the official journal for ECCS- European Convention for Constructional Steelwork members. You will find more information about membership on the ECCS homepage. Topics include: -Design and construction of structures -Methods of analysis and calculation -Experimental and theoretical research projects and results -Composite construction -Steel buildings and bridges -Cable and membrane structures -Structural glazing -Masts and towers -Vessels, cranes and hydraulic engineering structures -Fire protection -Lightweight structures
