EN 1992-1-1 Eurocode 2 - Design of Concrete Structures - General Rules Test Standard for Buildings

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 1992-1-1 test. This design standard provides requirements for the design and detailing of concrete structures.

Chapters are often organized on the basis of phenomena. The normative text consists of principles (marked with a P after the item number) and codes of practice. The principles apply to all concrete structures. The code also includes specific rules for building structures.

The code uses the limit state design philosophy and covers widely applicable limit states. A set of nationally determined parameters are allowed to meet the safety factors and the different geographical, geological and climatic conditions in Europe. The Code represents the current knowledge and experience of approximately 28 countries across Europe.

Common rules for buildings regarding the design of concrete structures are useful for:

• Construction industry;
• Mechanical fasteners;
• EU and EFTA Members;
• Construction engineer;
• regulatory authority;
• Concrete producer or supplier;
• Construction contractor.

EN 1992-1-1 specifies Eurocode 2, which benefits you for the strength, serviceability, durability and fire resistance requirements of concrete structures. Other requirements, for example with regard to heat or sound insulation, are not taken into account.
