  • [01] Des normes communes pour améliorer la compétitivité du secteur de la construction

    10 normes européennes relatives à la conception des ouvrages de construction établiront une approche commune pour la conception des bâtiments et d'autres ouvrages de génie civil à partir de 2010. Ces «eurocodes» dynamiseront l'activité dans ce secteur, en éliminant les barrières techniques au commerce des produits et services de construction au sein de l'Union européenne. Ils amélioreront la qualité des produits et des services et créeront de nouvelles possibilités d'emploi dans le secteur de la construction, qui représente actuellement 28% des emplois industriels dans l'UE. Afin de promouvoir une large utilisation des eurocodes dans tous les États membres, la Commission européenne organise à Bruxelles, du 18 au 20 février, une conférence qui rassemblera plus de 300 délégués venant des États membres. L'objet de cette conférence est de transmettre aux formateurs nationaux les connaissances et l'expertise appropriées.

    [02] Construction output down by 0.6% in the euro area

    In the construction sector, seasonally adjusted production fell by 0.6% in the euro area (EA13) and by 0.7% in the EU27 in December 2007 compared with the previous month. In November, production decreased by 1.0% in the euro area and by 0.5% in the EU27. Compared with December 2006, output in December 2007 declined by 3.3% in the euro area and by 4.0% in the EU27. Compared with 2006, the average construction output for 2007 increased by 3.7% in the euro area and by 3.9% in the EU27. These first estimates are released by Eurostat.
