A free online workshop full of practical examples, provided by CEN Technical Committee 250 'Structural Eurocodes' and organised by the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC)
JRC Technical report: Determination of representative values from derived values for verification with limit states with EN 1997
This guideline is an essential tool for designers to understand how to determine representative values for the design and verification of geotechnical structures, in accordance with the procedures outlined in the second generation of Eurocode 7.
The Eurocodes at the workshop on Sustainable Public Procurement in Cambodia
More than 200 stakeholders exchanged on how to drive positive change in sustainable public procurement practices and identified key steps and priorities for implementing such practices in Cambodia, along with capacity and institutional building initiatives.
JRC Technical report: Assembling the ground model and the derived values
This guideline addresses the process of assembling the Ground Model, highlighting the importance of progressively upgrading it with an increase in knowledge of the ground within the zone of influence of the specific structure.
JRC Technical report: Implementation of design during execution and service life
This guideline provides designers with advice on the content to consider for design implementation plans, with examples for different geotechnical structures; it indicates methods to align the design code requirements with the practical considerations of the execution phase of the project.
New training materials available on second generation Eurocode 7
The presentations from the seminar 'Decoding Second Generation Eurocode 7 - Basis of Geotechnical Design' (Paris, 21-22 October 2024) are available for free download, on the dedicated page of the website of NEN
Reliability-based verification of limit states for geotechnical structures
This JRC TR provides the Eurocode users with a guideline to reliability-based verification of limit states coherently with the safety concepts of the Eurocodes, as well as information for code developers to perform reliability calibration of partial factors in the preparation of National Annexes.
JRC Report 'Reliability background of the Eurocodes'
This JRC Technical Report presents scientific information on the assessment of structural reliability of buildings and infrastructures designed with the Eurocodes. Advanced probabilistic and semi-probabilistic approach are described, with relevant basic concepts, available models and examples.
New video: the ASEAN study visit on Eurocodes to the JRC, Ispra, Italy
A video on the Eurocodes study visit to the JRC Ispra site is now published by the EU Delegation in ASEAN on the main social media platforms
JRC Technical Report on Guidance to design for structural robustness
This JRC Technical Report presents scientific and technical background information to introduce the different aspects involved in structural robustness. Background information, state-of-the-art references and available provisions serve as a basis for further work towards a harmonized European view.
