Abstract
Design of either pin-ended or fixed circular steel arches with hollow circular cross-sections subjected to a uniformly distributed vertical load along the horizontal projection of the entire arch with the aid of the EC3 provisions is discussed. Appropriate modification factors are proposed that should be included in EC3 interaction equations, to improve their accuracy for the design of such arches.
