The Eurocodes (EN 1990 to EN 1999) are a comprehensive set of European standards that provide a unified approach to the structural design of buildings and civil engineering works. Regarded as some of the most advanced structural building codes globally, they cover various construction materials and structural elements, ensuring safety, reliability, and sustainability in engineering practices across Europe.
Eurocode 5 (EN 1995) specifically focuses on the design of timber structures, setting high standards for the use of timber in construction. It addresses aspects such as material properties, structural behavior, and design principles, facilitating the creation of efficient and safe timber buildings.
At Ergodomus Timber Engineering, we utilize the Eurocodes—particularly Eurocode 5—as the foundation for our structural analysis and design processes. While we are deeply experienced with these European standards, our expertise also extends to other international building codes, such as the Australian Standards and Canadian Codes. This flexibility allows us to adapt to various regional requirements and deliver tailored solutions to clients worldwide.
