P(l) The EUROCOMP Design Code applies to the structural design of... 

P(4) The EUROCOMP Design Code does not cover the special requirements of seismic design. 

P(5) The EUROCOMP Design Code aims to be harmonious with Eurocodes. Numerical values of the actions on buildings and civil engineering works to be taken into account in the design are not given in the EUROCOMP Design Code. They are provided in the Eurocode 1 Bases of Design and Actions on Structures applicable to the various types of construction. 

The principles of this EUROCOMP Design Code should be applicable to any fibre reinforced polymeric composite. However, the design methods and design data are specific to the use of glass fibres. 

The attached EUROCOMP Handbook is intended to provide additional information to supplement the EUROCOMP Design Code. 

P(l) Depending on the character of the individual clauses, distinction is made in the EUROCOMP Design Code between Principles and Application Rules. 

Application Rules given in the EUROCOMP Design Code, provided that it is shown that the alternative rules accord with the relevant Principles and are at least equivalent with regard to the resistance, serviceability and durability achieved for the structure with the EUROCOMP Design Code. 

Additional information is contained in the EUROCOMP Handbook which accompanies the EUROCOMP Design Code. 

Special terms used in the EUROCOMP Design Code and the EUROCOMP Handbook... 

In general, the symbols used in the EUROCOMP Design Code are based on the common symbols in 1.6 and on derivatives of these as, for example ... 

The systems used for the co-ordinates for components, elements and individual plies in the EUROCOMP Design Code shown in Figure 1.1. 

P(2) The design of certain members (e.g. in which appreciable bendingstretching-torsion coupling, or some combination of these, occurs) is outside the scope of the EUROCOMP Design Code. Reference should be made to the specialist literature or design programmes (see Chapter 4) for information and recommendations on the anniications anaivsis and...
