Sec.6 Failure mechanisms and design criteria – Page 118<br />

For orthotropic materials the directions shall be the material axes. For isotropic materials the directions shall<br />

be along either the principal normal stresses or the principal shear stresses.<br />

This is a conservative design criterion. It has been chosen due to a lack of data and experience with ultimate<br />

failure under multiple stress conditions. Other design criteria may be used if experimental evidence for their<br />

validity can be given (see under [19]).<br />

Guidance note:<br />

A resistance-model factor γ Rd = 1.25 should be used with this design rule. The modelling factor shall ensure a<br />

conservative result with respect to the simplifications made regarding the treatment of combined loads.<br />

7.1.6 The characteristic strength σ nk for each of the stress components σ nk and the corresponding coefficients<br />

of variation COV n are defined as specified in Sec.4 [1.6] andSec.5 [1.6].<br />

7.1.7 The combined COV comb is defined according to one of the following alternatives. The second alternative<br />

is conservative with respect to the first.<br />

or<br />

where,<br />

COV comb = max n (COV n )<br />

n refers to the directions 11, 22, 33, 12, 13, 23<br />

COV n COV for stress component n<br />

COV for the combined stress components.<br />

COV comb<br />

7.1.8 When two or several loads are combined, each characteristic stress component σ nk in direction n can be<br />

the result of several combined loads. In that case each stress component σ j nk , local load effect of the structure in<br />

direction n due to load j, shall be considered separately as an individual stress component to determine the COV.<br />

The design criterion has then the form:<br />

7.1.9 The choice of the partial safety factors shall be based on the most conservative partial safety factors<br />

obtained when treating each stress component σ nk j , local response of the structure in direction n due to load j,<br />

as a single load.<br />

7.1.10 The partial safety factors γ F and γ M shall be chosen as described in Sec.8 with a resistance COV equal<br />

to COV comb.<br />

— Bifurcation buckling: Increasing the applied loading induces at first deformations that are entirely (or<br />

predominantly) axial or in-plane deformations. At a critical value of applied load (elastic critical load) a<br />

new mode of deformation involving bending is initiated. This may develop in an unstable, uncontrolled<br />

fashion without further increase of load (unstable post-buckling behaviour, brittle type of failure), or grow<br />

to large values with little or no increase of load (neutral post-buckling behaviour, plastic type of failure) or<br />

develop gradually in a stable manner as the load is increased further (stable post-buckling behaviour,<br />

ductile type of failure).<br />

— Limit point buckling: As the applied load is increased the structure becomes less stiff until the relationship<br />

between load and deflection reaches a smooth maximum (elastic critical load) at which the deformations<br />

increase in an uncontrolled way (brittle type of failure).<br />
