The creation of the Structural Eurocodes has been in progress for many years; these new EU Standards have now advanced to a stage that warrants serious preparation for their implementation and the consequences of withdrawal of corresponding national documents. For a complex engineering discipline such as geotechnics, used to the piecemeal and evolutionary introduction of national codes and testing standards, the introduction of a significantly different design philosophy for dealing with engineering uncertainty and the relatively rapid replacement of national documents represent major changes for the industry.
