Experts from CEN/TC 250/SC 5, the technical committee in charge of the maintenance of Eurocode 5 — Design of timber structures, will provide a record of the deep technical background that supported the development of the second-generation EN 1995, explain what has changed and why, highlight the benefits of this second generation, and disseminate sources of information useful as design support.
The webinar will open with an introduction to the second-generation Eurocodes and an overview of EN 1995, followed by sessions addressing major updates to EN 1995-1-1 on general rules and EN 1995-1-2 on structural fire design, as well as revised provisions for EN 1995-2 on bridges and the new EN 1995-3 on execution. Key improvements include enhanced clarity, extended coverage, and greater consistency with EN 1990.
Participation to this webinar is free. Please register at: Webinar second generation of Eurocode EN 1995.
Registration will close 10 days before the date of the webinar.
