Eurocode - The new design code in Europe for civil engineering work is called eurocode. The eurocode is actually build up of 10 different main eurocodes and covers subjects like design loads, concrete structures, steel structures, aluminium, timber and masonry structures. Geotechnical design (foundations) and earthquake resistance of structures is also covered in separately eurocodes.
