INTRODUCTION
This National Annex has been prepared by the Working group on the development of the
National Annexes to Euro Codes (SC35/WG/12), Design of Concrete Structures. It is to be
used in conjunction with SLS EN 1992-2:2014.
This National Annex was approved by the Sectoral Committee on Building and Construction
Materials and was authorized for adoption and publication as a Sri Lanka National Annex by
the Council of the Sri Lanka Standards Institution on 2016-05-26.
In the preparation of this National Annex, the assistance derived from the publication of the
British Standards Institution (BSI) and the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is
gratefully acknowledged.
NA.1 SCOPE
This National Annex gives Sri Lanka decisions for the Nationally Determined Parameters
described in the following sub clauses of SLS EN 1992-2:2014;
Sri Lanka decisions for the nationally determined parameters described in SLS EN 1992-
2:2014 are given in Table NA.1.

Value of Cmax C70/85 C70/85. However the shear strength of concrete classes
higher than C50/60 should be determined by tests,
unless there is evidence of satisfactory past
performance of the particular mix including the type of
aggregates used. Alternatively shear strength of
concrete strength classes higher than C50/60 may be
limited to that of C50/60

6.2.3 (103) Values of v1 and cw v1 = v .However, if the design stress of the shear reinforcement Use the recommendation
is below 80% of the characteristic yield stress fyk, v1 may be
taken as:
v1= 0.6 for fck ≤ 60 MPa
v1 = 0.9 – fck /200 0.5 for fck ≥ 60 MPa
cw is as follows:
1 for non-prestressed structures
(1 + σcp /fcd) for 0 < σcp ≤ 0.25 fcd
1.25 for 0,25 fcd σcp ≤ 0.5 fcd
2.5 (1 – σcp/fcd) for 0.5 fcd σcp1.0 fcd
Where;σcp is the mean compressive stress, measured positive, in
the concrete due to the design axial force. This should be obtained
by averaging it over the concrete section taking account of the
reinforcement. The value of σcp need not be calculated at a
distance less than 0.5d cot from the edge of the support. In the
case of straight tendons, a high level of pre-stress (σcp /fcd 0.5)
and thin webs, if the tension and the compression chords are able
to carry the whole re stressing force and blocks are provided at
the extremity of beams to disperse the prestressing force (see fig.
6.101), it may be assumed that the prestressing force is distributed
between the chords. In these circumstances, the compression field
due to shear only should be considered in the web (cw = 1).
