The EUROCODES and Costruction Products

The use of Eurocodes for CE Marking of products according to the CPR 305/2011.

When the product properties to be declared for CE Marking are obtained from calculations, three methods are foreseen:

1. Indication of geometrical data of the component/kit and of properties of the materials and constituent products. The information on the geometrical data and properties of materials enable the structural component to be designed, using the Eurocodes, for verifying its adequacy in construction [...]

The EUROCODES: Implementation and Use

The objective of the European Commission is for “the Eurocodes to establish a set of common technical rules for the design of buildings and civil engineering works which will ultimately replace the differing rules in the various Member States”. 

The Eurocodes are a set of European Standards (EN) for the design of buildings and other civil engineering works and construction products, produced by the Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN).

They embody National experience and research [...]

Decreto MIT 31 luglio 2012: Appendici nazionali Eurocodici

Approvazione delle Appendici nazionali recanti i parametri tecnici per l’applicazione degli Eurocodici.

Eurocodici: panoramica

Gli Eurocodici (EC) sono norme europee per la progettazione strutturale. Si allineano alle norme nazionali vigenti e consentono al professionista l'utilizzo di criteri di calcolo comuni ed adottabili anche all'estero.

Vedi Documento cronistoria e Status Eurocodici

Per meglio districarsi attraverso questo complesso gruppo di norme tecniche, ogni eurocodice tratta un preciso argomento:

- L'Eurocodice 0 fornisce le indicazioni di base per affrontare la progettazione con il metodo semiprobabilistico agli stati limite, le combinazioni di verifica, i fattori di sicurezza (salvo diversamente specificato) per la combinazione delle azioni.

Eurocode 2: Design of Concrete Buildings - Worked Examples

This document is a report with worked examples presenting step-by-step the design of a reinforced concrete cast on site building following Eurocode 2.

The design process has been divided between different authors, some of whom were involved in the preparation and/or assessment of Eurocode 2.

Each chapter of the report focuses on a different step in the design process: conceptual design, structural analyses, limit states design and verification, detailing of the reinforcement [...]

JRC Scientific and Policy Report: Eurocodes: Background & Applications.

Design of Steel Buildings. Worked examples

The present JRC report contains state-of-the-art training material on the structural design of steel buildings, with emphasis on worked examples.

The technical papers here presented focus on specific parts of the structural design, namely basis of design, modelling of structure, design of members, connections, cold-formed steel, seismic and fire design and on sustainability aspects.

The report intends to contribute towards the transfer of background knowledge [...]

Eurocodes: Background & Applications Structural Fire Design

Worked examples

This document is a report with worked examples presenting the fire resistance assessment of structures according to the Eurocodes.

The authors were involved in the preparation and/or assessment of the Eurocodes structural fire design parts.
Each chapter of the report focuses on a specific structural material (i.e. steel, concrete, masonry, etc.) and addresses the principles and design methods followed by worked example(s).
The provided information illustrates the basic design methods through examples [...]
