Abstract
JRC support to the implementation, harmonization and further development of the Eurocodes
This document describes the rationale and justification for a new European code for the design of glass structures, its parts or kits for use in civil engineering works and outlines the specific reasons for standardisation in this area as well as the main interested parties who will benefit from the new standard. The timeliness of the proposed Eurocode is made evident both by the perceived demand for a design standard pertinent to the use of glass products in construction works and by the available knowledge and technology. Finally, a tentative proposal for the consultation, feasibility analysis and initiation strategies are presented.
