<p>Eurocode 7(EC7) introduces the characteristic and design values with partial factors to reduce uncertainties associated with soil parameters, applying load, etc. The characteristic and design values of soil parameters according to this code were determined, ...

<p>Eurocode 7, the new European standard for geotechnical design, together with the other Eurocodes for structural design, was implemented in 2010, and relevant parts of British Standards that covered the same ground were<br />withdrawn. Since it is a single ...

<p>This paper advocates a holistic perception of the structural design process. By shortly reflecting the design process, it aims to identify common characteristics of &lsquo;good&rsquo; structural design: A common postulate is always the definition of, or ...

<p>In Eurocode 7, the application of statistical methods and reliability analyses is encouraged though not much guidance is clearly given for the practitioner. Reliability analyses can effectively model parameter uncertainty and provide more meaningful results ...
