This series of "Designers' Guides to the Eurocodes" provides comprehensive guidance in the form of design aids, indications for the most convenient design procedures and worked examples. The books also include background information to aid the designer in understanding the reasoning behind and the objectives of the codes. All of the individual guides work in conjunction with the "Designers' Guide to EN 1990 Eurocode: Basis of Structural Design". The part of Eurocode 5 covered by this guide, EN 1995-1, addresses the common rules and rules for buildings, including structural fire design. This Designers' Guide looks specifically at timber buildings, including full explanation and commentary on the code with examples, and direction to the National Annex documents.
