Abstract

The paper highlights the importance of the implementation of Eurocodes in Ukraine and the development of its own national regulatory documentation in the field of building structures based on them and its alignment with world standards. The article analyzes a number of studies on the implementation of Eurocodes in Ukraine. A number of main European standards, which are the basis of Eurocodes, are considered. 10 European standards, EN 1990 - EN 1999, containing general approaches to the design of buildings and other construction works and construction products, and are basic in the formation of Eurocodes, were analyzed. The main concepts that are the basis of the Eurocodes are considered, namely safety, serviceability, fire resistance and strength of building structures and materials, requirements for their reliability, service life, durability and quality. The state of harmonization of domestic DSTU and DBN with Eurocodes was studied. unification and harmonization of various design and construction traditions of all EU member states led to their long-term development and implementation. Different environmental conditions and lifestyles in different Member States require flexibility in the national application of Eurocodes. The structure of the Eurocodes, the stages and features of their implementation in the European Community are described. The advantages of Eurocodes for their introduction into the national regulatory framework are revealed. The main provisions on the harmonization of national construction standards with Eurocodes and their implementation in the construction industry of Ukraine are highlighted. In order to bring the domestic construction industry to a new level, Eurocodes should become a standard for it. State norms, which will be adapted to European ones, will allow the introduction of the latest technologies and approaches, which will ensure the compliance of buildings and structures with modern world trends. It will also allow European investors to be attracted to our market, because their standards will serve as a certain guarantee for them that all regulatory provisions will be observed during construction design, and the construction object will be implemented in accordance with current European standards.
