Document History

This document is considered to be a first generation Eurocode and is the applicable standard for building and civil engineering works constructed in the UK. A period now exists to prepare for the transition between first and second generation Eurocodes. First generation Eurocodes will be withdrawn by BSI on 30 March 2028 and will be replaced by second generation Eurocodes. Supersedes BS 449-2:1969, BS 2853:1957 and BS 5950-1:2000. To enable EN 1993-6 to be used in the UK, the Nationally determined parameter (NDP) will be published in a National Annex, which will be made available by BSI in due course after public consultation has taken place. Amendment dated 30 April 2010 - Implementation of CEN corrigendum July 2009.
