EN 1994 Eurocode 4 applies to the design of composite structures and members for buildings and other civil engineering works. 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 4 is concerned with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of composite structures.

Free download of the report and presentations of the Second-Generation Eurocodes Workshop (3-5June 2025)
This workshop was a unique opportunity to highlight the key changes and benefits of the Second-Generation Eurocodes, illustrated through examples and applications presented by the Eurocodes writers themselves.
A free online workshop full of practical examples, provided by CEN Technical Committee 250 'Structural Eurocodes' and organised by the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC)

This report synthesizes the main contributions from the workshop 'The second generation Eurocodes: key changes and benefits through design examples'. It aims to support the implementation of the second-generation Eurocodes in the EU Member States and third countries.
The work outlines recent EU policies supporting the sustainability and climate resilience of infrastructure and buildings.
It evaluates the expected variations in climatic factors causing corrosion,…
Reliability is defined in the Eurocodes as the “ability of a structure or a structural member to fulfil the specified requirements, including the design working life, for which it has been designed”…
