SIST EN 1999-1-4:2007/A1:2012
(Amendment)Eurocode 9: Design of aluminium structures - Part 1-4: Cold-formed structural sheeting
General Information
- Abstract
(1)P EN 1999-1-4 gives design requirements for cold-formed trapezoidal aluminium sheeting. It applies to cold-formed aluminium products made from hot rolled or cold rolled sheet or strip that have been cold-formed by such processes as cold-rolled forming or press-breaking. The execution of aluminium structures made of cold-formed sheeting is covered in EN 1090-3.
NOTE The rules in this part complement the rules in other parts of EN 1999-1.
(2) Methods are also given for stressed-skin design using aluminium sheeting as a structural diaphragm.
(3) This part does not apply to cold-formed alumi¬nium profiles like C-, Z- etc profiles nor cold-formed and welded circular or rectangular hollow sections.
(4) EN 1999-1-4 gives methods for design by calculation and for design assisted by testing. The methods for the design by calculation apply only within stated ranges of material properties and geometrical properties for which sufficient experience and test evidence is available. These limitations do not apply to design by testing.
(5) EN 1999-1-4 does not cover load arrangement for loads during execution and main-tenance.

Overview
SIST EN 1999-1-4:2007/A1:2012 is the Slovenian edition of Eurocode 9: Design of aluminium structures - Part 1-4: Cold-formed structural sheeting. Developed under CEN and adopted by SIST, this standard sets the design requirements for cold-formed trapezoidal aluminium sheeting used in structural engineering. It applies specifically to products manufactured from hot or cold-rolled aluminium sheets or strips that are cold-formed through processes such as roll forming or press-breaking. The standard outlines both calculation-based and test-assisted methods for structural design, supporting safe and durable aluminium sheeting constructions.
Key Topics
Scope and Applicability
- Focuses on cold-formed trapezoidal aluminium sheeting
- Excludes cold-formed aluminium profiles (C, Z, etc.) and welded hollow sections
- Complements other parts of EN 1999-1 for comprehensive aluminium structure design
Design Approaches
- Methods for design by calculation within defined material and geometry limits
- Guidance for design assisted by testing, without the same limitations as calculation methods
Structural Applications
- Incorporates stressed-skin (diaphragm) design principles utilizing aluminium sheetings for load transfer as part of the structural system
Product Requirements
- Details on approved aluminium alloys and composite materials, such as EN AW-6025-7072 alclad
- Specification of cladding thickness for durability and structural performance
Limitations
- Does not address load arrangements during structure execution or maintenance operations
- Execution aspects must adhere to EN 1090-3 for aluminium structures
Applications
SIST EN 1999-1-4:2007/A1:2012 is essential for professionals involved in the design and execution of aluminium structures using cold-formed sheeting. Its main applications include:
Industrial and Commercial Buildings:
- Design of lightweight roofing and wall systems relying on cold-formed aluminium sheeting
Architectural Facades:
- Structural sheeting supporting façade elements, providing both functional and aesthetic benefits
Infrastructure Projects:
- Use in bridges or transportation facilities where aluminium sheeting forms part of stressed-skin elements
Prefabricated Buildings:
- Integration with modular building systems utilizing standardised aluminium structural sheeting
By applying the framework and requirements of this standard, designers and engineers ensure structural integrity, durability, and compliance with European and national regulations for aluminium sheeting in construction projects.
Related Standards
For comprehensive application and compliance, SIST EN 1999-1-4:2007/A1:2012 should be used in conjunction with the following standards:
- EN 1999-1 (Eurocode 9): General design rules for aluminium structures, providing the broader context for Part 1-4.
- EN 1090-3: Execution requirements for aluminium structures, covering fabrication and installation.
- EN 1993 and EN 1994 (Eurocodes 3 and 4): Relevant where mixed materials or interfaces with steel and composite structures occur.
- Relevant National Annexes and Amendments: For local regulatory requirements and adaptations.
Practical Value
Utilizing SIST EN 1999-1-4:2007/A1:2012 supports the safe, efficient, and compliant design of aluminium structures using cold-formed sheeting. Adhering to this standard assists architects, structural engineers, manufacturers, and contractors in meeting both technical and regulatory demands, ensuring high quality and resilient aluminium building solutions.
