Description

In November 2022, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) published the Technical Specification CEN/TS 19101:2022, “Design of Fibre-Polymer Composite Structures”, which is a milestone towards the widespread application of composite materials in civil engineering structures. This paper presents the basis of design of CEN/TS 19101:2022, which follows the philosophy and partial factor format of the Eurocodes, and describes how the effects of temperature and moisture are considered, namely through the use of conversion factors.
