5 The Eurocodes BS EN 1990 (EC0): Basis of structural design BS EN 1991 (EC1): Actions on Structures BS EN 1992 (EC2): Design of concrete structures BS EN 1993 (EC3): Design of steel structures BS EN 1994 (EC4): Design of composite steel and concrete structures BS EN 1995 (EC5): Design of timber structures BS EN 1996 (EC6): Design of masonry structures BS EN 1997 (EC7): Geotechnical design BS EN 1998 (EC8): Design of structures for earthquake resistance BS EN 1999 (EC9): Design of aluminium structures

6 Features of the Eurocodes The Eurocodes contain Principles (P) which comprise: General statements and definitions for which there is no alternative, as well as: Requirements and analytical models for which no alternative is permitted They also contain Application Rules, which are generally rules which comply with the Principles The Eurocodes also use a comma (,) as the decimal marker Each Eurocode part has a National Annex which modifies the main text of the Eurocode

7 National Annex The National Annex provides: Values of Nationally Determined Parameters (NDPs) (NDPs have been allowed for reasons of safety, economy and durability) Example: Min diameter for longitudinal steel in columns φ min = 8 mm in text φ min = 12 mm in N.A. The decision where main text allows alternatives Example: Load arrangements in Cl (1) P The choice to adopt informative annexes Example: Annexes E and J are not used in the UK Non-contradictory complementary information (NCCI) TR 43: Post-tensioned concrete floors design handbook
