2. Description of the course
The course introduces the basic principles in EC2 (EN 1992-1-1:2004) and
relationship to other Eurocodes and European standards.
It will provide overview of the content in EC2, regarding: Materials, Durability
and Structural analysis.
Design procedures at the ultimate limit states will be explained (bending, shear
and axial loading) and serviceability limit states (stress, crack widths and
deflection).
Structure of the course
