Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures

EN 1992 banner

 

EN 1992 Eurocode 2 applies to the design of buildings and other civil engineering works in plain, reinforced and prestressed concrete. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990: Basis of structural design. EN Eurocode 2 is concerned with the requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of concrete structures.

Parts

EN 1992-1-1:2004 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
EN 1992-1-2:2004 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 1-2: General rules - Structural fire design
EN 1992-2:2005 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 2: Concrete bridges - Design and detailing rules
EN 1992-3:2006 Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 3: Liquid retaining and containment structures

Part 1.1 gives a general basis for the design of structures in plain, reinforced and prestressed concrete, while Part 1-2 deals with the design of concrete structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure. Part 2 gives a general basis for the design and detailing of bridges in reinforced and prestressed concrete. Finally, Part 3 covers additional rules for the design of concrete structures for the containment of liquids or granular solids and other liquid retaining structures.

EN Eurocode 2 is intended to be used in conjunction with:

  • EN 1990: Eurocode - Basis of structural design;
  • EN 1991: Eurocode 1 - Actions on structures;
  • hENs, ETAGs and ETAs: Construction products relevant for concrete structures;
  • ENV 13670: Execution of concrete structures;
  • EN 1997: Eurocode 7 - Geotechnical design;
  • EN 1998: Eurocode 8 - Design of structures for earthquake resistance, when concrete structures are built in seismic regions.
