The fib and its Model Code 2020 initiative
EDN: YNSGGB
Abstract
By the example of the International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib), its structure and organization are shown, and unique possibilities to develop works in the field of concrete and reinforced concrete are specified. Created in recent years, the fib Model Code for concrete structures (Model Code 2010) is expected to be of immense value in facilitating the development of national and regional codes and guidance on specific topics in the world. This document summarizes the findings made over the past decades of researches and those areas where information is still insufficient. In 2016, the fib started to work on the fib Model code 2020. The new version of the Model Code will be developed as a single merge structural code, including provisions for new and existing structures.
