Concise Eurocode 2
The introduction of European standards to UK construction is a significant event as for the first time all design and construction codes within the EU will be harmonized. The ten design standards (Eurocodes) will affect all design and construction activities as current British Standards for structural design are due to be withdrawn in 2010.
The cement and concrete industry recognized the need to enable UK design professionals to use Eurocode 2, Design of concrete structures, quickly, effectively, efficiently and with confidence.
Supported by government, consultants and relevant industry bodies, the Concrete Industry Eurocode 2 Group (CIEG) was formed in 1999 and this Group has provided the guidance for a coordinated and collaborative approach to the introduction of Eurocode 2. As a result, a range of resources are being delivered by the concrete sector.
The aim of this publication, Concise Eurocode 2, is to distil from Eurocode 2 and other Eurocodes the material that is commonly used in the design of concrete framed buildings.
