All rights reserved 9 Geotechnical categories GC Includes Design requirements Design procedure Small and relatively simple structures with negligible risk Conventional types of structure & foundation with no exceptional risk or difficult soil or loading conditions Structures or parts of structures not covered above Negligible risk of instability or ground movements Ground conditions known No excavation below water table Quantitative geotechnical data & analysis to ensure fundamental requirements are satisfied Routine design & construction methods Routine field & lab testing Routine design & execution Use alternative provisions and rules to those in Eurocode Geocentrix Ltd.

17 More pile load tests? the scourge of the UK construction industry will soon be upon us with the Eurocodes and specifically EC7 factors of safety [to] derive safe pile load capacity are inversely proportional to the number of soil profiles available As a result there will be a direct design benefit from carrying out a comprehensive site investigation. Put crudely, more boreholes will mean lower factors of safety Reference: David Puller, chief engineer at Bachy Soletanche, Ground Engineering Talking Point (October 2004) 2006 Geocentrix Ltd. All rights reserved 33 Unified principles for geotechnical design [Eurocode 7 Part 1] introduces important changes in design practices : for the first time, a unified set of Principles for all geotechnical design bridges the philosophical divide between geotechnical design and superstructure design clear distinction between ultimate limit state [and] serviceability limit state requires more systematic thought about uncertainty in geotechnical material parameters introduces a degree of compulsion by indicating that certain (Principle) activities shall be undertaken Reference: forthcoming CIRIA Report RP Geocentrix Ltd. All rights reserved 34 17
18 Impact of Eurocode 7 within the UK, the extent to which geotechnical design has been codified [is] much less than in other sectors the introduction of EN 1997 (Geotechnical design) will represent a marked change in UK practice the needs of geotechnical designers to adapt will be significant Reference: National Strategy for Implementation of the Structural Eurocodes: Design Guidance, IStructE (April 2004) 2006 Geocentrix Ltd.
