‘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.’

1. EC7 Background
 In 1975, Commission of the European Community
decided an action program on the field of construction.
 Aim: to eliminate technical obstacles and harmonize
technical standards among European countries.
5
 Harmonization of the Civil Engineering standards
would
• Provide a common language between the European
Engineers
• Enhance competitiveness of European companies in
world market
• Facilitate the exchange of Engineering services and
products
6
For fifteen years, commission, with the help of
steering
committee,
conducted
development
of
Eurocodes programme, which lead to first generation
of European codes in 1980s.
By 2010, all the Eurocodes have been published and
these are now used in all the member states.
7
 These set of harmonized technical rules are known as Structural
Eurocodes which comprise of a series of 10 European
Standards, EN 1990 – EN 1999 (EC0 – EC9).
Standards within the Structural Eurocodes programme

4. Geotechnical Risk
 A welcome requirement of Eurocode 7 is the mandatory
assessment of risk for all design situations.
... the complexity of each geotechnical design
shall be identified together with the associated
risks ... a distinction shall be made between light
and simple structures and small earthworks ...
with negligible risk [and] other geotechnical
structures. [EN 1997-1 §2.1(8)P]
20
When negligible risk is involved, design may
be based on past experience and qualitative
geotechnical investigations.
 In all other cases, quantitative investigations
are required.
21
Geotechnical
Category
Description
GC1
Small and relatively simple structures - it is possible to
ensure that fundamental requirements are satisfied on
the basis of experience & qualitative geotechnical
investigations with negligible risk.
GC2
Ex: straightforward ground conditions, local
experience, no excavation below the GWT, etc.
Conventional types of structure and foundation; No
difficult soil or loading conditions; Quantitative
geotechnical data and analysis required;
Routine procedures for field and laboratory testing; No
exceptional risk
Ex: spread, raft and pile foundations, retaining walls,
bridge piers and abutments, embankments, ground
22
anchors, tunnels and excavations.
Geotechnical

areas; Areas of ground instability
Ex: Mining, solution, collapsible soils, frost action,
etc.
23
 It is not necessary to classify all parts of a project in one
Geotechnical Category.
24
 Magnitude & scope of geotechnical investigations must reflect
the structure’s Geotechnical Category.
 Since ground conditions may influence category chosen for the
structure or parts of it, they should be established early on in the
investigation (through a desk study or preliminary field work).
[EN 1997-1 §3.2.1(2)P and 3.2.1(4)]
25
5. Design values of action & resistance
 An action - ‘(a) Set of forces (loads) applied to the structure
(direct actions); (b) Set of imposed deformations or
accelerations caused, for example, by temperature changes,
moisture variation, uneven settlement or earthquakes (indirect
actions)’
 A geotechnical action - an ‘action transmitted to the
structure by the ground, fill, standing water or ground-water’
26
 A resistance - ‘capacity of a member or component to
withstand actions without mechanical failure’
 An action effect - general term denoting internal forces,
moments, stresses, and strains in structural members - plus
the
deflection
and
rotation
of
the
whole
structure.
[EN 1990 §1.5.3.2]
27
A structure subjected to permanent, variable and accidental
actions
28
An action and effect of action
 Presence of the load (an action) results in beam deflecting and
internal stresses occurring in its cross-section (effects of the
action).
29

Effect of Actions
30
Traditional Approach (BS) vs. EC7
 In contract to traditional lumped factor of safety (FOS)
approach (BS 8004), EC7 promotes the use of Partial
Factor of Safety.
 In the traditional methods, material properties & loads
were treated in an unmodified state and a FOS was
applied at the end of the design process.
31
 However, EC7 guides the designer to modify each
parameter early in the design by use of the partial factor
of safety.
 Representative or characteristic values of the parameter
(load, soil strength parameters) is converted to design
value by combining it with the partial factor of safety
for that parameter.

Design value of resistance (Rd)
 Resistance (R) is derived from the design values of
actions and ground parameters.
 To determine design resistance (Rd), partial factors may be
applied to ground properties (X) or resistance (R) or to both.

Over design factor (߁)
 For ultimate limit state (ULS), effects of the design actions (Ed)
do not exceed the design resistance (Rd) of the structure or
ground (𝑬𝒅 ≤ 𝑹𝒅 ).
 Ratio of resistances to action is termed as over- design factor (𝝉).

6. EC7 Limit states
 For each geotechnical design situation it shall be verified that no
relevant limit state is exceeded
 Limit states - states beyond which the structure no longer
satisfies the relevant design criteria.
 Section 2 of EN 1997-1 describes basis of geotechnical design &
code states that limit states should be verified by one of four
means:
(1) calculation
(2) prescriptive measures
(3) experimental models and load tests,
(4) an observational method.
40
Processes involved in geotechnical design by calculation
41
6.1 Ultimate Limit States (ULS)
 EC7 lists five Ultimate limit states to be considered in the
design process:
1. EQU
2. GEO
3. STR
4. UPL
5. HYD
42
1. EQU limit state
loss of equilibrium of the structure or the supporting
ground when considered as a rigid body & where internal
strengths of structure & ground do not provide resistance.
This limit state is mostly relevant to structural design.
This limit state is satisfied if sum of design values of effect of
destabilizing actions (Edstb; d) is less than or equal to sum
of design values of effect of stabilizing actions (Estb; d)
𝑬𝒅𝒔𝒕𝒃;𝒅 ≤ 𝑬𝒔𝒕𝒃; 𝒅.
43
Verification of EQU limit state
44
2. GEO limit state
 Failure or excessive deformation of the ground, where the soil
or rock is significant in providing resistance.
 This limit state is satisfied if the design actions (Ed) is less than
or equal to the design resistance (Rd), i.e. - 𝑬𝒅 ≤ 𝑹𝒅.
45
3. STR limit state
 STR – failure or excessive deformation of the structure,
where strength of structural material is significant in
providing resistance. As with GEO limit state, STR is
satisfied if the design actions (Ed) is less than or equal to the
design resistance (Rd), i.e. - 𝐸𝑑 ≤ 𝑅𝑑 .
46
4. UPL limit state
 loss of equilibrium of the structure or the ground due to uplift
by water pressure (buoyancy) or other vertical actions.
5. HYD limit state
 Hydraulic heave, internal erosion and piping in the ground
caused by hydraulic gradient (i.e. - at the base of a braced
excavation).

49
Design Approaches (for GEO and STR limit states)
 EC7 permits the adoption of three design approaches:
 Design Approach 1
 Design Approach 2
 Design Approach 3.
 The three design approaches differ in the way in which
they distribute the partial factors.
50
Design Approach 1: Combination 1: A1 + M1 + R1
Combination 2: A2 + M2 + R1
Design Approach 2: A1 + M1 + R2
Design Approach 3: A* + M2 + R3
(Note: A*: use set A1 on structural actions and A2 on
geotechnical actions;
A - Actions, M - Material properties and R - Resistance)

Design Approach 2 (DA 2): A1 + M1 + R2
Design Approach 2 is to check foundation’s reliability by
applying partial factors to actions or action effects and
to resistance simultaneously, while ground strengths are
left unfactored.
 In DA 2 only one verification (A1 + M1 + R2) is ever
required.
57
Design Approach 3 (DA 3): A* + M2 + R3
 Aim is to check the foundation’s reliability by applying
partial factors to structural actions (A1) and to material
properties simultaneously, while geotechnical actions
(A2) and resistance are left mainly unfactored.
 Similar to DA 2, only one verification (A* + M2 + R3) is
required for DA 3.
 In DA 3, the entire calculation is performed with the design
values of the actions and the design shear strength
parameters.
58
NOTE:
 An important feature of DA3 is the distinction between
structural and geotechnical actions — larger factors are
applied to the former than to the latter, suggesting greater
uncertainty in their values.
59
Example-2]
A concrete foundation is to be cast into a soil deposit as shown
in Figure Ex2 below. The foundation has a representative self
weight, W of 50 kN. During a check for bearing resistance, the
vertical representative actions VG;k and VQ;k are considered as
unfavourable. Determine the design values of each action, for
each Design Approach.
Figure Ex2
60
61
Example-3]
The ground beneath the foundation shown in Figure
Ex-2 above has the following characteristic values:
cuk = 40 kPa; ck = 5 kPa; φk = 25°. Determine the
design values of each property, for each Design
Approach.
62
63
6.2 Serviceability Limit States (SLS)
 For SLS, the effects of the design actions (Ed) do not exceed
the performance criteria (Cd) of the structure.
𝑬𝒅 ≤ 𝑪𝒅.
 Effect of the design actions attempting to exceed the limit
state include deformation, settlement, deflection, ground
heave, vibration, etc.
 Values of partial factors for SLS should normally be
takes as 1.0.
