| ICS Code (Earthworks. Excavations. Foundation construction. Underground works): | 93.020 |
| ICS Code (Physical properties of soils): | 13.080.20 |
scope:
This Standard applies to performance monitoring of the ground, structures interacting with the ground and geotechnical works.
Specifically, this Standard applies to field instrumentation and measurements carried out
- in connection with site investigations of soils and rocks in accordance with EN 1997-2;
- in connection with the Observational Design procedure in accordance with EN 1997-1;
- for ground behaviour evaluation, e.g. unstable slopes, consolidation etc.
- for the proof or follow-up of a new equilibrium within the ground, after disturbance of its natural state by construction measures (e.g. foundation loads, excavation of soil, tunnelling);
- for the proof or follow-up of the stability, serviceability and safety of structures which may be influenced by geotechnical construction;
- for perpetuation of evidence;
- for the evaluation and control of geotechnical works.
