European architectural standards

European architectural standards are a set of regulations and guidelines that ensure buildings are safe, accessible, sustainable, and functional across the continent. They cover aspects like structural integrity, fire safety, energy efficiency, and environmental impact. Standards are developed by organizations such as CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and aim to harmonize construction practices across countries, facilitating quality and interoperability. These standards guide architects and builders in designing and constructing buildings that meet consistent performance and safety criteria, fostering innovation while protecting public welfare and promoting sustainable development.
