Abstract

Eurocode 7 on 'Geotechnical design' is actively being implemented throughout
Europe. Part 1 devoted to the 'General rules' was published by CEN in 2004. The National
annexes and documents have been prepared for final implementation in the various
European countries. After describing shortly the history of the development of Eurocode 7,
this paper gives the main contents of the code, as well as some aspects of particular
interest to the soil-structure interaction modelling: the design approaches (DA1, DA2 and
DA3) for ULS verifications in persistent and transient design situations, SLS verifications and
allowable movements of foundations.
