European foreword
This document (prEN 1999-1-2:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC250
"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 1999-1-2:2007.
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.---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------

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
•
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 1999 Eurocode 9EN 1999 applies to the design of buildings and civil engineering and structural works made of aluminium.
It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis
of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990 – Basis of structural design.
EN 1999 is only concerned with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance
of aluminium structures. Other requirements, e.g. concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not
considered.EN 1999 does not cover the special requirements of seismic design. Provisions related to such
requirements are given in EN 1998, which complements, and is consistent with EN 1999.
EN 1999 is subdivided in five parts:— EN 1999-1-1 Design of Aluminium Structures: General structural rules.
— EN 1999-1-2 Design of Aluminium Structures: Structural fire design.
— EN 1999-1-3 Design of Aluminium Structures: Structures susceptible to fatigue.

0.3 Introduction to EN 1999-1-2
This document describes the principles, requirements and rules for the structural design of aluminium
buildings exposed to fire. The focus in EN 1999-1-2 is on design methods and design rules for individual
members (beams, columns, beam-columns), joints and skeletal structures (frames) regarding resistance
and stability under fire conditions.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.0.5 National annex for prEN 1999-1-2
National choice is allowed in this standard where explicitly stated within notes. National choice includes
the selection of values for Nationally Determined Parameters (NDPs).The national standard implementing EN 1999-1-2 can have a National Annex containing all national
choices to be used for the design of buildings and civil engineering works to be constructed in the relevant
country.When no national choice is given, the default choice given in this standard is to be used.
When no national choice is made and no default is given in this standard, the choice can be specified by a
relevant authority or, where not specified, agreed for a specific project by appropriate parties.
National choice is allowed in EN 1999-1-2 through the following clauses:4.5(1) NOTE
4.7(1) NOTE
7.2.1 (1) NOTE
7.2.3 (5) NOTE
7.2.4 (4) NOTE
National choice is allowed in EN 1999-1-2 on the application of the following informative annexes:
Annex A (informative) Properties of aluminium alloys and/or tempers not listed in EN 1999-1-1
Annex B (informative) Heat transfer to external structural aluminium membersThe National Annex can contain, directly or by reference, non-contradictory complementary information
for ease of implementation, provided it does not alter any provisions of the Eurocodes.
