national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by February 2014, and conflicting
national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2014.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and
/ or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

According to the CEN / CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are

1 Modification to 4.4.1, General

Add a new Paragraph (3):

"

(3) For low-dissipative structures (see 2.2.2 (2)), the ductility, capacity design and overstrength
requirements of 4.4.2 do not need to be applied.
".

2 Modification to 5.4.1.2.2, Columns

Replace Paragraph (1) with:

"

(one) The minimum cross-sectional dimension of primary seismic columns shall be not less than 200 mm.

(2nd)

unless θ ≤ 0.1 (see 4.4.2.2 (2)), the cross-sectional dimensions of primary seismic columns should not be
smaller than:
- one twentieth of the larger distance between the point of contraflexure of the deflected
shape and the ends of the column, for bending within a plane parallel to the column dimension considered;

- 250 mm.
".

3 Modification to 5.11.2.1.2, Overdesigned connections

Replace Paragraph (1) with:

"

(one) The design action-effects of overdesigned connections should be derived on the basis of the capacity
design rules of 5.4.2.2 for beams and 5.4.2.3 for columns, on the basis of overstrength flexural resistances at the
end sections of critical regions equal to γ Rd. M Rd,
with the factor γ Rd taken as being equal to 1.20 for DCM and to 1.35 for DCH.
".

4 Modification to 5.11.3.2, Columns

Replace Paragraph (3) with:

"

(3) For precast frame systems with hinged column-to-beam connections, the columns should be fully fixed
against translation and rotation at the base in foundations designed in accordance with 5.11.2.1.2.

".

5 Modification to 5.11.3.5, Diaphragms

Replace Paragraph (6) with:

"

(6) In-plane acting shear forces along slab-to-slab or slab-to-beam connections should be computed in
accordance with 4.4.2.5. The design resistance should be computed as in
5.11.2.2.
