Installation of reinforcement and concrete

The regulations familiar until now on the installation of concrete and reinforcement – most recently gone into effect as exclusively valid for Germany as set forth in [1] – remain essentially unchanged, even now in light of the next heavily European-oriented generation of regulations. The – again “new” – standards for execution of concrete structures will then be DIN EN 13670:2011-03 [2] and DIN 1045-3:2012-03 [3]. There is accordingly no real need for drawing attention to basically new contents; instead, we should concentrate on regulations that have previously been somewhat “neglected.” With...
