IS 456, Eurocode 2, Comparison, Effectiveness, Beam Design

The reinforced concrete structures must be analyzed and designed according to the provisions of relative design standards. Design codes are the documents which are established for the design of a respective structure. Most of the countries have established their own design codes according to their local geographical, topographical and climatic conditions. However, such multiplicity in design criteria may lead towards the misperception of the structural engineers who are working on a global platform. Even though Indian Standards provides adequate guidelines for construction of buildings in India, there are some International standards which covers supplementary parameters that are not included in IS codes. Thus, the efforts are made to provide a comparative study on analysis and design parameters of R.C.C. beam according to the Indian code (IS456:2000) and European code (Eurocode 2 EN 1992-1-1). Such comparison will ensure the effectiveness in economical structural design worldwide.
