What are “Eurocodes”?
The Eurocodes
+ The Eurocodes area set of European Standards (EN) for
the design of buildings and other civil engineering works
‘and construction products
+ The Eurocodes cover in a comprehensive manner the
basis of design, actions on structures, the principal
construction materials, all major fields of structural
engineering anda wide range of types of structures and
products,
+ Eurocodes is mace up of separate parts (58 parts in
total
5S EN 1990 Eurocode: Basi of Structural Design
55 N 1991 Eurocode 1: Actions of Structures
55 N 1992 Eurocode 2: Dasin of Concrete Structures
