Intended use
The precast concrete composite wall with point connectors is intended to be used for the construction of
external walls above or below ground and internal walls which are load bearing or non-load bearing, including
those that are subject to fire regulations.
The precast concrete composite wall with point connectors shall be subjected to static and quasi static actions
only.
1.2.2
Working life/Durability
The assessment methods included or referred to in this EAD have been written b
request to take into account a working life of the precast concrete composite wall with point connectors for
the intended use of 50 years when installed in the works provided that the is subject to appropriate
installation, see Clause 1.1. These provisions are based upon the current state of the art and the available
knowledge and experience.
When assessing the product the intended use as foreseen by the manufacturer shall be taken into account.
The real working life may be, in normal use conditions, considerably longer without major degradation
affecting the basic requirements for works1.
The indications given as to the working life of the construction product cannot be interpreted as a guarantee
neither given by the product manufacturer or his representative nor by EOTA when drafting this EAD nor by
the Technical Assessment Body issuing an ETA based on this EAD, but are regarded only as a means for
expressing the expected economically reasonable working life of the product.
The real working life of a product incorporated in a specific works depends on the environmental conditions to which that works is subject, as
well as on the particular conditions of the design, execution, use and maintenance of that works. Therefore, it cannot be excluded that in
certain cases the real working life of the product may also be shorter than the working life.

The relevant dimensions of the connector shall be determined.
The dimensions shall conform to the connector's specification.
2.2.2.3

Material characteristics of the components of the connector shall be determined according to the
respective reference standards. For the stainless steel wires EN 10088-1 and EN 1993-1-4 applies. The
steel sheet shall be determined according to EN 10130.
Acceptance criteria shall conform to the respective reference standard of the component's material. The
components shall be accompanied by an inspection certificate 3.1.
Results of tensile tests to compare with the figures of the inspection certificate 3.1 are to be provided.
2.2.2.4
Steel failure due to tensile loading and combined pull-out and concrete cone failure
Due to corrugation and notches of the steel wires the characteristic resistance in case of steel failure,
NRk,s, cannot be calculated according to EOTA TR 029, Clause 5.2.2.2 but shall be assessed during
testing of combined pull-out and concrete cone failure.
The occurrence of steel failure due to tensile loading or combined pull-out and concrete cone failure
depends on the embedment depth of the steel wires and concrete strength class. The embedment depth
is equal to the thickness of the concrete layers.
Testing shall be carried out on concrete layers of different thickness. The minimum layer thickness where
combined pull-out and concrete cone failure does not occur anymore but steel failure shall be assessed
as well as the characteristic values of both failure modes.
The compressive strength of the precast reinforced layers of concrete shall be verified according to EN
12390-1, EN 12390-2 and EN 12390-3.
5 pull-out failure tests for one thickness of precast reinforced layer of concrete shall be summarized in
one test series. The mean value of steel failure at maximum load as well as for combined pull-out and
concrete cone failure shall be calculated. The 5 %-fractile value at a confidence level of 90 % shall be
determined. The 5 %-fractile value shall then be converted to a concrete compressive strength of 25
N/mm2 (cube compressive strength of C20/25):

2.2.2.6
Splitting failure
According to EOTA TR 029, Clause 5.2.2.6, the calculation of the characteristic splitting resistance may
be omitted if the following two conditions are fulfilled:
-
A reinforcement is present which limits the crack width to wk ~ 0.3 mm, taking into account the
splitting forces according to EOTA TR 029, Clause 7.3.
The characteristic resistance for concrete cone failure and pull-out failure is assessed for
cracked concrete.
In all other cases a minimum reinforcement is required to avoid splitting of the member. The splitting
reinforcement shall be calculated for 50 % of the tensile force of the steel wires. The necessary crosssection of the minimum reinforcement in mm 2 is determined as follows:
Where
sum of the tensile forces of the anchor bolts under tension under the design value of the
actions [N]
characteristic value of the yield point of the reinforcing steel [N/mm 2]
partial safety factor for the reinforcement according to national rules; in the absence of such
rules, the partial safety factor can be taken with 1.15 from EN 1992-1-1.
In all other cases the characteristic minimum reinforcement to avoid splitting of the layers shall be stated
in the ETA.
