What are the Eurocodes?
The Eurocodes are pan-European structural design codes. There are ten Eurocodes in a total of 58 parts covering: basis of design; actions on structures; design of structural elements in concrete, steel, composite steel and concrete, timber, masonry and aluminum; together with geotechnical and seismic design. They cover the design of bridges, buildings, silos, tanks, pipelines, towers, masts and more.
What are the differences between the Eurocodes and the British Standards? Is there a different design philosophy?
The Eurocodes are limit state codes like the British Standards, although are perhaps a little more explicitly based in reliability theory. Many of the Eurocode rules are based on the same theory as the British Standards, although the Eurocodes embody the most up to date research on many aspects of structural behavior.
The Eurocode clauses are structured in a slightly different way in that they contain principles that must be satisfied and application rules that offer a way of satisfying the principles. This is intended to stimulate innovation. The Eurocodes are also less prescriptive than the British Standards, with more aspects left open to the designer. |
Why Eurocodes
1.Britain migrated to the Eurocodes in March 2010.
2.The British Standards Institution no longer maintains and updates the British Standards.
Benefits of Eurocodes:
1.The Eurocodes is considered one of the world's most technically advanced design standards.
2.It is based on the collective expertise of professionals from the European Union.
3.It allows each country to introduce National Annex which specifies parameters to customise its local requirements.
4.It provides opportunities for the building professionals to import and export design expertise and products.
