Eurocodes: Building the future

Bridge design with Eurocodes

Details

Objectives

The main objective of the seminar is to promote the adoption of the Eurocodes for bridge design in Russia and facilitate further implementation steps.

In particular, it is envisaged that the seminar and round table discussion will serve the following objectives:

  • Provide information on policy of Eurocodes implementation to the Russian delegates;
  • Address design aspects demonstrating that Eurocodes are innovative standards;
  • Present examples of bridges designed to Eurocodes;
  • Explain why Eurocodes can lead to advanced, yet economic solutions for the design of bridges;
  • Setup of expert working groups with EU and Russian experts to facilitate implementation of Eurocodes (e.g. setting up of NDPs, drafting of National Annexes).
