ICE is pleased to announce the launch of the Bridge Design to Eurocode - UK Implementation conference, taking place on 22 – 23 November 2010 at One Great George Street, London.
From April 2010, British Standards will be replaced by the Structural Eurocodes (EN1990 – EN1999) as the principal design standards for bridges in the UK.
This two-day conference will provide the definitive background to the implementation of the Structural Eurocodes for bridge design in the UK.
The event will enable engineers to understand key technical decisions taken in the development of the National Annexes and important sources of complementary information. In addition, leading client bodies will explain their implementation strategies, technical background will be provided on companion European Execution Standards and illustrative examples presented.
Delegates will hear from a number of experts who have been at the very heart of Eurocode developments. The conference and accompanying proceedings will serve as the essential and enduring record of the UK's Eurocode implementation for bridge design.
