<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withdrawn.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>A comparative study of pile design is presented using Eurocode 7 and an expanded reliability - based design (RBDE) method that is recently developed by the authors. A design example that has been used in the literature to illustrate Eurocode 7 is re-designed ...

It is inappropriate, if not meaningless, to attempt to apply limit state design methods, such as those encapsulated in Eurocode 7, to the design of primary support for tunnels in rock, particularly weak rock or any rock under high stress. By reference to some ...

<p>This study aims to discuss harmonization of Design Approaches in Eurocode 7 and National Annexes from the viewpoint of reliability. Relative reliability difference of the different design results, which are estimated from respective Eurocode 7 Design Approaches, ...

<p>This paper develops a more general reliability-based design approach for drilled shafts that formulates the design process as an expanded reliability problem in which Monte Carlo simulations MCS are used in the design. Basic design parameters, such as ...

<p>In April 2010 the 2nd International Workshop on the Evaluation of Eurocode 7 was held in Pavia, Italy. This Workshop was organised by ETC 10 and the SC7 Maintenance Group. In preparation for the Workshop, a set of six design examples was prepared and published ...

<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 ...

<p>This paper is a contribution for the application of Eurocode 7 design methodology, based on the limit state design (LSD) approach. The design methodology of Eurocode 7 is applied to a concrete gravity retaining structure resting on a relatively homogeneous ...

<p>The construction of cuts, embankments and dam in and on different ground require the analyses of slope stability, deformations and often the use of the observational method. New codes, such as Eurocode 7 or its sister code in Switzerland SIA 267, prescribe ...
