The most technically advanced codes in the world
Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures — Part 1: General rules and rules for buildings , together with United Kingdom National Application Document. This publication comprises the English language version of ENV 1992-1-1:1991 , in the design of buildings to be constructed in the United Kingdom.
ENV 1992-1-1:1991 results from a programme of work sponsored by the European Commission to make available a common set of rules for the design of building and civil engineering works.
An ENV is made available for provisional application, but does not have the status of a European Standard. The aim is to use the experience gained to modify the ENV so that it can be adopted as a European Standard.
