Category: Structural steel
Document reference: EN 1993-1-1:2022
Document title: Eurocode 3 - Design of steel structures - Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
Nominal values of yield strength and ultimate tensile strength for structural steels conforming to EN 10025 (all parts), EN 10210 (all parts), and EN 10219 (all parts).
Nominal yield strength fy corresponds to the upper yield strength ReH (or proof strength Rp0.2), and ultimate tensile strength fu corresponds to Rm. Strength values decrease with greater product thickness as reflected across nominal thickness intervals.
Yield and ultimate tensile strength values conforming to EN 10025 (all parts), EN 10210 (all parts), and EN 10219 (all parts).
