Abstract:
The system of technical regulation is considered as foundation for the creation
of a high construction culture, increasing the competitiveness of the industry in
Kazakhstan. Key actions to reform regulatory framework which was established by the
government focused on achieving a sustainable balance of economic and social interests
of construction participants and consumers. The process of adopting international
standards to Kazakhstan soil and construction conditions is gradual. The first step was
to adapt foreign technical documentation to the national technological environment. In
this way, there were developed appropriate methodologies for assessing conformity to
educate builders and designers to develop appropriate training programs, handbooks,
and manuals, translation to the Kazakh language, checking the general format of the
maintenance of the Eurocodes by comparative calculations, etc. It is important that this
process does not contradict the Eurocode relating to any aspects of the requirements in
Kazakhstan that are not covered by the Eurocode. The article presents discussions of
stages for harmonization and adaptation of Eurocode to Kazakhstan norms.
