How will Eurocodes impact on the modification of highway structures?
The Agency will specify that Eurocodes must be used as the basis for the design of modification works to highway structures. This will include design of strengthening and upgrading works, design of replacement of structural elements and design of replacement of components (relevant European Product Standards to be considered in conjunction with Eurocodes). Further requirements including interfaces with existing elements designed and assessed to current National Standards will be given in the forthcoming Intrerim Advice Note.
