Understand, analyse, and assess
Geotechnical engineering is
the art of using soils whose properties we do not really
understand to form and to support structures we cannot
really analyse, so as to withstand forces which we
cannot really assess, in such a way that the public does
not really suspect

Implementation of Eurocodes
The structural Eurocodes are a European suite of codes
for structural design developed over twenty-five
years
By 2010 they will have effectively replaced the current
British Standards as the primary basis for designing
buildings and civil engineering structures in the UK
They [will be] used as an acceptable basis for meeting
compliance with UK Building Regulations and the
requirements of other public authorities

Of vital importance
The Eurocodes will become the Europe wide means of
designing Civil and Structural engineering works and
so they are of vital importance to both the design
and construction sectors of the Civil and Building
industries

Design by prescriptive measures
2.5(2) Design by prescriptive
measures may be used where
comparable experience makes
design calculations unnecessary
2.5(1) These [measures] involve
conventional and generally
conservative rules in the design,
and attention to specification and
control of materials, workmanship,
protection and maintenance
procedures

bearing resistance for spread

Design by observation or testing
2.7(1) When prediction of geotechnical behaviour is difficult, it can be
appropriate to apply the approach known as the observational
method, in which the design is reviewed during construction
2.7(2)P The following requirements shall be met before construction is
started:
acceptable limits of behaviour shall be established
the range of possible behaviour shall be assessed
a plan of monitoring shall be devised
a plan of contingency actions shall be devised
2.6(1)P When the results of load tests or tests on large or small scale
models are used to justify a design the following features shall be
considered :
differences in the ground conditions between the test and the actual
construction
time effects
scale effects

Verification of strength
Verification of strength is expressed in Eurocode 7 by:
E
d
= design effect of actions
R
d
= design resistance corresponding to that effect
This requirement applies to limit state GEO:
Failure or excessive deformation of the ground, in which the strength of
soil or rock is significant in providing resistance
EN 1997-1 2.4.7.1(1)P
and to ultimate limit state STR
Internal failure or excessive deformation of the structure or structural
elements in which the strength of structural materials is significant in
providing resistance

Structural effects are independent
of material strength
In structural engineering, effects are
independent of strength of
materials

often depend on the strength of
materials

deflection/settlement of retaining

pressure:

resistance often depends on self-

ground

Partial factors = 0 mean that the corresponding action is omitted from design calculations

Verification of serviceability
Verification of serviceability is expressed in Eurocode 7 by:
E
d
= design effect of actions (e.g. displacement, distortion)
C
d
= limiting design value of the effect of actions
Serviceability limit states are defined as:
States that correspond to conditions beyond which specified
service requirements for a structure or structural member are no
longer met
EN 1990 1.5.2.14
Partial factors should normally be taken as 1.0
Some guidance on values for C

is given in Annex H
