Describes the design of buildings and civil engineering works in timber (solid timber, sawn, planed or in pole form, glued laminated timber or wood-based structural products e.g. LVL) or wood-based panels jointed together with adhesives or mechanical fasteners. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, and the basis of design and verification that are given in EN 1990:2002.

(1) EN 1995-2 gives general design rules for the structural parts of bridges, i.e. structural members of importance for the reliability of the whole bridge or major parts of it, made of timber or other wood-based materials, either singly or compositely with concrete, steel or other materials. (2) The following subjects are dealt with in EN 1995-2: Section 1: General Section 2: Basis of design Section 3: Material properties Section 4: Durability Section 5: Basis of structural analysis Section 6: Ultimate limit states Section 7: Serviceability limit states Section 8: Connections Section 9: Structural detailing and control (3) Section 1 and Section 2 also provide additional clauses to those given in EN 1990:2002 \'Eurocode: Basis of structural design\'. (4) Unless specifically stated, EN 1995-1-1 applies.
