Overview
EN 1993-1-5:2024 - Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Part 1-5: Plated structural elements (CEN) provides design rules for stiffened and unstiffened nominally flat plates in steel structures that are subjected to in‑plane forces. The standard addresses non‑uniform stress distributions caused by shear lag, in‑plane load introduction and plate buckling, and sets conditions for when a plate can be treated as nominally flat (curvature criterion: r ≥ b²/t). Out‑of‑plane loading effects are outside the main scope.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope & assumptions: Applies with EN 1990, EN 1991 series and EN 1993-1-1 unless stated otherwise. Execution quality and materials must meet EN 1090‑2 and relevant EN 1993 parts.
- Shear lag: Elastic and ultimate‑limit considerations, effective width models and stress distributions are provided for members where stress is non‑uniform.
- Plate buckling: Rules for plate and column‑like buckling, effective cross‑section, slenderness limits, and interpolation between plate and column behaviour.
- Stiffened vs unstiffened plates: Guidance for longitudinal and transverse stiffeners, detailing, welds, and minimum stiffener requirements.
- Resistance checks: Design resistance formulations for direct stresses, shear, patch loading and interactions (axial/bending/shear).
- Design methods: Includes effective width approaches, the reduced stress method, and provisions for design assisted by finite element analysis.
- Special topics: Plate girders with corrugated webs, flange‑induced buckling, and requirements for end and intermediate stiffeners.
- Informative annexes: Annex A (critical stress calculation for stiffened plates) and Annex B (non‑uniform members and interaction with lateral‑torsional buckling).
Practical applications
EN 1993-1-5:2024 is used to design and verify plate elements in a wide range of steel structures where plates carry in‑plane forces:
- Plate girders, floor and roof plate elements, shear panels and web/flange panels
- Stiffened panels in industrial structures, marine and offshore jacket components (where in‑plane assumptions apply)
- Fabrication detailing for stiffeners, welds and bearing arrangements
Typical users:
- Structural engineers and designers performing Eurocode‑based steel design
- Detailers and fabricators ensuring compliance with EN 1090‑2 execution standards
- Design offices, reviewers and certification bodies checking buckling, shear lag and interaction verifications

This document (EN 1993-1-5:2024) 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 matters by CEN.
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 September 2027, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by March 2028.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 1993-1-5:2006 and its amendments and corrigenda.
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.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are listed below:
― the torsional stiffness of closed-section stiffeners has been taken into consideration;
― the procedure for interpolation between column-like and plate-like behaviour has been revised;
― the scope has been extended to non-rectangular panels;
― the presence of longitudinal stiffeners with a low stiffness is neglected for the verification to direct
stresses;
― rules for patch loading resistance have been revised;
― the interaction formulae have been revised and extended;
― rules for the verification of the transverse stiffeners have been revised;
― rules for the verification of flange-induced buckling have been revised;
― reduced stress method has been extended to bi-axial loading;
― rules for corrugated webs have been extended.

0.3 Introduction to EN 1993-1-5
EN 1993-1-5 gives design requirements for unstiffened and stiffened plates that are subject to in-plane
forces. It also covers plated structural elements like I-section girders or box girders, as well as plated
components used in tanks and silos.
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.

4 Basis of design
4.1 General rules
4.1.1 Basic requirement
(1) The design of steel plated structural elements shall be in accordance with the general rules given in
EN 1990 and the EN 1991 series and the specific design provisions for steel structures given in
EN 1993-1-1.
(2) Steel structures designed according to this document shall be executed according to EN 1090-2 with
construction materials and products used as specified in the relevant parts of the EN 1993 series or in
the relevant material and product specifications.
(3) The effects of shear lag and plate buckling shall be taken into account at the serviceability and ultimate
limit states, including fatigue if applicable.
4.2 Partial factors
(1) The partial factors as defined in EN 1993-1-1 should be applied to the characteristic values of the
following resistances:
— Resistance to direct stresses γ
M0
— Resistance to shear γ
M1
— Resistance to patch loading γ
M1
— Resistance of transverse stiffeners γ
M1
— Resistance according to the reduced stress method γ
M1
— Resistance of compression flanges of girder with corrugated webs where γ
M1
lateral torsional buckling governs
SIST EN 1993-1-5:2024
(2) Partial factors γ and γ have the value assigned to them in the National Annex to the relevant parts
M0 M1
of EN 1993-1 to EN 1993-6.
4.3 Effective width models for global analysis
(1) The effects of shear lag and of plate buckling on the stiffness of members and joints shall be taken into
account in the global analysis.
(2) The effects of shear lag of flanges in global analysis may be taken into account by the use of an
s s
effective width. For simplicity this effective width may be assumed to be uniform over the length of the
span.
s
(3) For each span of a member the effective width of flanges should be taken as the lesser of the gross
width and L/8 per side of the web, where L is the span or twice the distance from the support to the end
of a cantilever.
p
(4) The effects of plate buckling in elastic global analysis may be taken into account by effective cross-
sectional areas of the elements in compression, see 6.3.
(5) For the calculation of effective areas for stiffness, the serviceability limit state slenderness λ may
p,ser
be calculated from:
σ
com,Ed,ser
λλ=
(4.1)
p,ser p
f
y
where
σ is defined as the maximum compressive stress (calculated on the basis of the effective cross-
com,Ed,ser
section) in the relevant element under loads at serviceability limit state.
(6) The second moment of area at serviceability limit state may be calculated by an interpolation of the
gross cross-section and the effective cross-section for the relevant load combination using the formula:
σ
gr
(4.2)
I =I − II− σ
( )
( )
eff gr gr eff com,Ed,ser
σ
com,Ed,ser
where
I is the second moment of area of the gross cross-section;
gr
σ is the maximum compressive bending stress at serviceability limit states based on
gr
the gross cross-section;
I (σ ) is the second moment of area of the effective cross-section with allowance for
eff com,Ed,ser
local buckling according to 6.4.1(7) calculated for the maximum stress σ ≥
com,Ed,ser
σ within the span length considered, using the reduced slenderness obtained
gr
from Formula (4.1).
(7) The effective second moment of area I may be taken as variable along the span according to the most
eff
severe locations. Alternatively, a uniform value may be used based on the maximum absolute sagging
moment under serviceability loading.
(8) The calculations described in (5) and (6) require iterations, but as a conservative approximation they
may be carried out as a single calculation at a stress level equal to or higher than σ .
com,Ed,ser
SIST EN 1993-1-5:2024
p
(9) For global analysis, the effect of plate buckling on the stiffness may be ignored when the effective
cross-sectional area of an element in compression at ultimate limit state is greater than 0,5 times the
gross cross-sectional area of the same element. The criterion applies for all individual plates of the cross-
section.
4.4 Plate buckling effects on uniform members
p
(1) Effective width models for direct stresses, resistance models for shear buckling and buckling due to
transverse loads as well as interactions between these models for determining the resistance of uniform
members at the ultimate limit state may be used when the following conditions apply:
— panels are rectangular and flanges are parallel;
— the diameter of any unstiffened open hole or cut out does not exceed 0,05b, where b is the width of
the panel.
(2) If the panel is non-rectangular but with an angle ϕ (see Figure 4.1) equal to or less than 10°, the panel
may be considered as a rectangular panel to calculate the relevant reduction factors, using as reference
width b the larger of b and b (according to Figure 4.1).
1 2
(3) If the panel is non-rectangular with an angle ϕ greater than 10° but less than or equal to 17,5°, the
rules given in 6.7 (5) should be applied.
NOTE The elastic buckling load factor α can be calculated either considering a rectangular panel with the
cr
larger width or considering the real tapered shape and corresponding edge stresses. As the stress distribution is
changing between the different cross-sections because of the tapering, this can lead to different plate slenderness
λ for the different cross-sections. See 6.4.1(1) for the definition of the reduction factor and 12.3(1) for the
p
definition of αcr.
(4) For non-rectangular panels with an angle ϕ greater than 17,5°, see 4.7.
Figure 4.1 — Definition of angle ϕ
s
(5) For the calculation of stresses at the serviceability and fatigue limit state the effective area may be
used if the condition in 4.3(9) is fulfilled. For ultimate limit states the effective area according to 5.3
should be used with β replaced by β .
ult
SIST EN 1993-1-5:2024
4.5 Reduced stress method
p
(1) As an alternative to the use of the effective width models for stress states given in Clauses 6 to 9, the
cross-sections may be assumed to be class 3 sections provided that the stresses in each panel do not
exceed the limits specified in Clause 12.
p
NOTE The reduced stress method is analogous to the effective width method (see 4.4) for single plated
elements. However, in verifying the stress limitations no load shedding is assumed between the plated elements of
the cross-section.
4.6 Design assisted by finite element analysis
(1) Finite element analysis for the calculation of the critical buckling stresses and for the verifications of
the ultimate limit states, serviceability limit states or fatigue limit states should be carried out according
to the rules given in EN 1993-1-14.
(2) The evaluation of the numerical simulation results should be made according to EN 1993-1-14.
NOTE The value of the maximum acceptable plastic strain is εmpp = 5 %, unless otherwise specified by the
National Annex.
4.7 Non-uniform members
(1) Non-uniform members (e.g. haunched members or non-rectangular panels with an angle ϕ greater
than 17,5°) or members with regular or irregular large openings may be analysed using Finite Element
(FE) methods.
NOTE For non-uniform members, guidance is also given in Annex B.
4.8 Members with corrugated webs
(1) For members with corrugated webs, the bending stiffness should be based on the flanges only and
webs should be considered to transfer shear and transverse loads. For the design of girders with
corrugated webs, see Clause 13.
5 Shear lag in member design
5.1 General
(1) Shear lag in flanges may be neglected if b < L /50 where b is taken as the gross width of the flange
0 e 0
outstand or half the width of an internal element and L is the length between points of zero bending
e
moment, see 5.2.1(2).

and a stress distribution according to 5.2.2. For the ultimate limit state verification an effective area
according to 5.3 may be used.
(3) Stresses due to patch loading in the web applied at the flange level should be determined from 5.2.3.

EN 1993-1-5:2024は、鉄骨構造物の設計に関する重要な標準であり、特に剛性および非剛性の名目上平坦なプレートの構造設計に関するルールを提供します。本標準の適用範囲は、プレートが平面内部の力の影響を受ける場合における設計基準を含んでおり、せん断遅れ、平面荷重の導入、プレートの座屈による非均一な応力分布への適切な対応が求められます。また、外的荷重の影響はこの文書の範囲外であることを明確にしています。 この標準の強みは、クラス1、2、3、4のセクションのルールを補完する内容を含んでいる点にあります。これにより、EN 1993-1-1に基づいたデザインが進化し、幅広い構造設計のニーズに応えることができます。さらに、細長いプレートの設計に関しては、反復的な直接応力やせん断、またプレート要素の「呼吸」による疲労に関しては、他の関連標準（EN 1993-2およびEN 1993-6）を参照することが推奨されています。このように、EN 1993-1-5は必要な他の標準との相互補完性があり、実用的な設計指針を提供することで、設計者がより効率的かつ安全に作業を行えるようにします。 さらに、単一のプレート要素を名目上平坦と見なすための明確な基準が示されており、プレートの曲率に関する定義が提供されています。これは、設計者がプレートの断面形状や寸法に基づいて適切な設計を行うための基盤を形成します。 全体として、EN 1993-1-5:2024は、鉄鋼構造物デザインにおける基準を確立するだけでなく、設計メソッドに対する明確で実用性のある指針を提供することにより、建設業界において重要な役割を果たす標準です。
Die Norm EN 1993-1-5:2024, Teil des Eurocode 3 für den Entwurf von Stahlkonstruktionen, bietet präzise Richtlinien für das Design von steifen und unstarren nominal flachen Platten, die unter in-plane Kräften stehen. Die Regelungen sind speziell auf die unterschiedlichen Aspekte der Belastung ausgelegt, einschließlich der nicht einheitlichen Spannungsverteilungen, die durch Effekte wie Scherlag, die Einführung in-plane Lasten und Plattenknicken verursacht werden. Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass die Norm die Auswirkungen von außerplanar aufgebrachten Lasten nicht behandelt, was die Klarheit und Fokussierung des Dokumentes unterstreicht. Die Norm deckt wichtige technische Parameter ab, die notwendig sind, um die strukturelle Integrität und Sicherheit von plattenförmigen Bauteilen sicherzustellen. Zudem ergänzen die Regeln in EN 1993-1-5 die bestehenden Regelungen für Klassen 1 bis 4, die in EN 1993-1-1 festgelegt sind, was zu einer übergreifenden Kohärenz innerhalb der Eurocodes beiträgt. Die spezifischen Anforderungen zur Beurteilung der Ecken von Platten, wie sie in der Definition der Plattenkrümmung beschrieben sind, bieten einen praktischen Leitfaden für Ingenieure bei der Planung und Umsetzung ihrer Projekte. Ein weiterer wichtiger Aspekt ist die Annahme, dass die Entwurfsmethoden in EN 1993-1-5 nur anwendbar sind, wenn die Ausführungsqualität den Anforderungen von EN 1090-2 entspricht und die verwendeten Konstruktionsmaterialien sowie Produkte den relevanten Normen der EN 1993-Serie entsprechen. Dies sichert ein hohes Maß an Qualität und Zuverlässigkeit bei der Anwendung dieser Norm in der Praxis. Insgesamt ist die EN 1993-1-5:2024 eine äußerst relevante Dokumentation, die den Ingenieuren klare und nachvollziehbare Regelungen an die Hand gibt, um die Herausforderungen beim Entwurf von plattenförmigen Bauteilen effektiv zu bewältigen. Die Stärkung der strukturellen Sicherheit und die Förderung bewährter Konstruktionstechniken stehen im Zentrum dieses wichtigen Normenwerks.
EN 1993-1-5:2024, titled Eurocode 3 - Design of steel structures - Part 1-5: Plated structural elements, provides a comprehensive framework for the structural design of stiffened and unstiffened nominally flat plates subjected to in-plane forces. The scope of this standard is well-defined, focusing primarily on the behavior of these structural elements under various loading conditions, while explicitly noting the exclusion of out-of-plane loading effects. This delineation enhances its usability among engineers and designers by concentrating on aspects that are critical in the context of in-plane forces. One of the strengths of EN 1993-1-5:2024 is its thorough integration of phenomena such as non-uniform stress distributions due to shear lag, in-plane load introduction, and plate buckling. By addressing these complexities, the standard equips practitioners with the necessary rules to create safe and effective designs. The inclusion of references to other relevant standards, like EN 1993-1-1 for class sections and EN 1993-2 and EN 1993-6 for slender plates under dynamic loading conditions, further solidifies its relevance within the broader framework of structural design guidance. The document defines key parameters, such as establishing when a single plate element is nominally flat based on its curvature radius, providing clarity that is crucial for practical application. This specification aids in the accurate classification of plate elements, ensuring that their treatment in design aligns with the standard's intent and safety objectives. Moreover, EN 1993-1-5:2024 stipulates compliance with construction quality and material specifications, thereby reinforcing the connection between design theory and practical execution. By requiring adherence to EN 1090-2 and relevant material specifications within the EN 1993 series, the standard emphasizes the importance of quality control and material performance, which are vital for structural integrity. Overall, EN 1993-1-5:2024 stands as a vital resource for engineers involved in the design of plated structural elements, effectively bridging the gap between theoretical principles and practical application in the construction industry. Its focused scope, comprehensive treatment of critical design considerations, and alignment with existing standards enhance its utility and significance in modern engineering practices.

Le document SIST EN 1993-1-5:2024 présente un cadre méthodologique solide pour la conception des éléments structuraux en acier, en particulier pour les plaques plates renforcées et non renforcées soumises à des forces dans le plan. Cette norme s'avère essentielle pour les ingénieurs et concepteurs, car elle aborde divers aspects critiques tels que la distribution non uniforme des efforts due à des phénomènes tels que la lag de cisaillement, l'introduction de charges dans le plan et le flambement des plaques. Un des points forts de cette norme est son approche détaillée concernant les plaques nominalement plates. Les critères définis pour le rayon de courbure des plaques assurent une compréhension précise de la géométrie nécessaire pour maintenir la solidité structurelle, facilitant ainsi le respect des critères de performance exigés dans la conception. La formule fournie, qui quantifie les conditions de courbure (r≥b^2/t), est particulièrement utile pour garantir que les éléments respectent les exigences de conception rigoureuses. De plus, la norme est conçue pour compléter les directives énoncées dans EN 1993-1-1, ce qui renforce la cohérence et l'harmonie au sein des documents normatifs européens. Cette synergie permet aux concepteurs d'avoir une approche plus intégrée de la conception des structures en acier. La mention de l'exigence de qualité d'exécution selon EN 1090-2 est également un élément de force, garantissant que les méthodes de conception proposées soient appliquées à des matériaux adéquats et dans des conditions contrôlées. Il est essentiel de noter que la norme exclut les effets indépendants des charges hors du plan, orientant ainsi les utilisateurs vers d'autres normes (comme EN 1993-2 et EN 1993-1-7) pour une analyse complète. Ce cadre aide à délimiter clairement les domaines d'application et protège l'intégrité des conceptions dérivées de cette norme. Dans l'ensemble, SIST EN 1993-1-5:2024 se positionne comme un outil de référence incontournable pour la conception d'éléments structuraux en acier, en consolidant des principes de sécurité et de performance optimaux, tout en assurant la conformité aux standards européens associés. La pertinence de cette norme ne peut être sous-estimée pour les projets nécessitant une attention particulière aux détails de conception des plaques plates dans le domaine des structures en acier.

The article discusses FprEN 1993-1-5, which is a part of the Eurocode 3 standard for the design of steel structures. This part specifically focuses on the design requirements for stiffened and unstiffened plates that are subjected to in-plane forces. It covers the effects of shear lag, in-plane load introduction, and plate buckling for I-section girders, box girders, tanks, and silos. However, it does not include the effects of out-of-plane loading. The document also provides notes for reference, including the application of the rules for different types of sections, the design of slender plates undergoing repeated stress and fatigue, and the effects of out-of-plane loading and their combination with in-plane effects. It also defines the conditions under which single plate elements can be considered as flat.
