Abstract

It was essential in the European Technical Specification for the Design of Fibre- Polymer Composite Structures (prCEN/TS 19101) to provide an Ultimate Limit State design procedure for a failure criterion for multi-ply laminates subjected to in-plane combined actions, which will give a generically applicable and a simple design procedure. This paper will discuss the rationale for the project team (of Working Group 4 to CEN/TC250) deciding that the resistance formula is to satisfy a linear interaction failure criterion.
