2nd Generation Eurocode Webinar Series
NSAI, with support from Engineers Ireland, continues its new webinar series on the upcoming 2nd Generation Eurocodes. Building on the foundation of the 1st Generation Eurocodes, this new suite represents a significant evolution in the European structural design framework. The 2nd Generation Eurocodes will support developments within the construction industry and reflect the needs of construction at a national level through Ireland’s National Annexes.
This webinar series will outline the main changes introduced across the 2nd Generation Eurocodes and highlight the timeline of their implementation in Ireland.
The webinar series will cover the following topics:
- EN 1990 – Basis of structural and geotechnical design
- EN 1991 – Actions on structures
- EN 1992 – Design of concrete structures
- EN 1993 – Design of steel structures
- EN 1996 – Design of masonry structure
- EN 1997 – Geotechnical design
This series is aimed at those working within the construction industry, including stakeholders, academia, and construction professionals – and is free for all to attend.
