(5) Single shell panels (cylindrical, conical or spherical) are not explicitly covered by EN 1999-1-5. However, the provisions can be applicable if the appropriate boundary conditions are duly taken into account.
(6) Types of shell walls covered in EN 1999-1-5 can be (see Figure 1.1):
- shell wall constructed from flat rolled sheet with adjacent plates connected with butt welds, termed “isotropic”;
- shell wall with lap joints formed by connecting adjacent plates with overlapping sections, termed “lap-jointed”;
- shell wall with stiffeners attached to the outside, termed “externally stiffened” irrespective of the spacing of stiffeners;
- shell wall with the corrugations running up the meridian, termed “axially corrugated”;
- shell wall constructed from corrugated sheets with the corrugations running around the shell circumference, termed “circumferentially corrugated”.

This European prestandard deals with the design of aluminium alloy structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure and is intended to be used in conjunction with prENV 1999-1-1:1997 and ENV 1991-2-2:1995. This European prestandard only identifies differences from, or supplements to, normal temperature design. This document deals only with passive methods of fire protection. Active methods are not covered. This European prestandard applies to structures which, for reasons of general fire safety, are required to avoid premature collapse of the structure in exposure to fire (load-bearing function).
