Verantwortlichkeiten bei Stahlbauprojekten

Responsibility for steel construction projects.

The actors in the chain beginning with the design via calculation, construction to manufacturing and assembling have to assume corresponding responsibilities. The fabrication-relevant design specifications have to be considered already in the design. Responding to requirements that arise from the design is important in the production, too. A self-contained set of rules exists in the steel construction sector. The standard series DIN EN 1990, DIN EN 1991 and DIN EN 1993 et seqq. are the base for structural designers and constructing engineers, and DIN EN 1090 is the base for the manufacturers and assembly operators. With the introduction of DIN EN 1090 the design and construction are also included in checking for conformity at the currently applicable regulations. After two years of experience in this area it is to be noted that the rules have largely been mastered in terms of design and construction. The fabrication-related requirements of DIN EN 1090 are, however, often still insufficiently taken into account. The resulting problems are presented as well as solutions. A contribution of an appropriate education and training will be presented.
