Towards increasing awareness of the Eurocodes in Brunei Darussalam - Workshop on training needs

The EU-ASEAN Eurocodes dialogue aims to bring a coherent approach to the adoption of the design standards for the construction sector across the ASEAN member states, through a regional approach.

The Enhanced Regional EU-ASEAN Dialogue Instrument (E-READI), funded by the EU, is a development cooperation programme that facilitates dialogue forums between the EU and ASEAN in priority policy areas of joint interest across all three ASEAN Community pillars (Political and Security, Economic and Socio-Cultural).

As part of the EU-ASEAN Cooperation for Regional Integration, the E-READI supported EU-ASEAN dialogue on Eurocodes has been established through a multi-annual concept note with the ASEAN Buildings and Construction Working Group (BCWG), ASEAN Secretariat and the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC). The Eurocodes dialogue aims to bring a coherent approach to the adoption of the design standards for the construction sector across the ASEAN member states, through a regional approach. ASEAN member states are currently being at various stages of awareness on the Eurocodes concepts and/or their adoption at national level.

On 5-6 July 2022 a Eurocodes workshop is organised dedicated to relevant authorities in Brunei Darussalam. The primary objective of this workshop is to respond to the training and capacity needs of Brunei Darussalam towards increasing awareness of the benefits of using Eurocodes, its impact to the future of construction sector and implications of climate change, as well as facilitate their implementation as national design codes.
