Adoption of the Eurocodes in Kenya

In January 2021, the Kenya construction industry is expecting to see changes in the built environment with the adoption of the Eurocodes standards, replacing the British Standards (BS) that have been in use in the country since 1968. In 2022, the implementation of the Eurocodes is expected to be approved by the parliament followed by their incorporation in the national legislation, as noted by the president of the Architectural Association of Kenya (AAK).
