CEN/TC 251 (CEN Technical Committee 251)

CEN/TC 251 is a committee within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) focused on developing standards for building and civil engineering drawings and related documentation. Its work ensures that construction plans, technical drawings, and urban planning documents are clear, consistent, and universally understood across Europe. By establishing common standards, CEN/TC 251 helps promote safety, efficiency, and interoperability in the construction industry, facilitating collaboration among designers, builders, and regulators. These standards also support digitalization, improve quality, and simplify regulations within the field of construction documentation.
