This workshop (Level 2/3) with emphasis on worked examples intends to contribute towards the transfer of background knowledge and expertise of Eurocode 7 writers (CEN/TC250 Sub-Committee 7) to potential trainers at national level and Eurocode users.
The workshop will include parallel presentation of the Eurocode 7 general rules, basic design principles and design methods, and relevant worked examples. The workshop sessions will address the
- the design of shallow foundations, gravity walls, embedded walls, and deep foundations;
- the ground investigation and testing process;
- the slope stability and hydraulic failure.
Interested participants are requested to submit their application for registration online not later than 17 May 2013.
