The standard is divided into six distinct parts, each covering different types of structures and technical requirements:

( EN 1998-2 ): Focused on the seismic design of new bridges. It emphasizes ductility and capacity design to ensure structural integrity and the continuation of emergency traffic after an event. EN 1998: EUROCODE 8 DESIGN OF STRUCTURES FOR EA...

(EN 1998-6): Establishes rules for tall, slender structures like TV towers, industrial chimneys, and lighthouses. Core Design Principles The standard is divided into six distinct parts,

( EN 1998-1 ): Covers fundamental performance requirements and the representation of seismic actions (response spectra). It includes specific design rules for buildings made of concrete, steel, composite materials, timber, and masonry. Core Design Principles ( EN 1998-1 ): Covers

(EN 1998-4): Addresses the structural design of facilities used for storage (tanks, silos) and transport (buried or above-ground pipelines).

( EN 1998-5 ): Covers soil-structure interaction, foundation systems, and the design of earth-retaining structures under seismic conditions.
