Eurocodes are a series of 10 European Technical Standards that provide a common approach to the structural design of buildings and other civil engineering works. Eurocodes help make European companies more competitive, and increase safety in the construction industry.
The Eurocodes are replacing national standards that provide common technical rules for the design of buildings and other civil engineering works and construction products.
A dedicated website on Eurocodes is maintained by the Joint Research Centre where users can find more comprehensive technical information.
