EN 1991 (Eurocode 1)

EN 1991 (Eurocode 1) is a European set of guidelines for designing buildings and infrastructure to safely withstand loads such as weight, wind, snow, and temperature effects. It provides standardized methods for engineers to assess how these forces impact structures, ensuring safety, durability, and performance throughout their lifespan. By following these principles, designers can predict the forces acting on structures and incorporate appropriate safety measures, contributing to reliable and resilient construction across Europe.
