Eurocode 2: Design of Concrete Structures

The course covers the design of common structural elements to Eurocode 2. Participants will be introduced to concrete material properties and learn about designing for durability and fire.

Attendees will be introduced to the properties of concrete and learn about designing for durability and fire. The course considers Eurocode 2 in relation to flexure, shear, axial load and deflection. Attendees will also learn how to use Eurocode 2 to design concrete beams, slabs and columns.

By the end of the course, attendees should be able to:

• Describe Eurocode 2

• Design concrete for beams, slabs and columns

• Determine cover for a typical element

• Design elements for bending, deflection, shear and axial loads
