Eurocode 7 — Geotechnical design — Part 3: Geotechnical structures; German version EN 1997-3:2025

Abstract

EN 1997-3 establishes principles and requirements for the design and verification of the following geotechnical structures, including temporary geotechnical structures: slopes, cuttings, embankments, shallow foundations, piled foundations, retaining structures, reinforced fill structures, soil nailed structures and ground improvement. EN 1997-3 establishes principles and requirements for the design and verification of supporting elements: anchors, reinforcing elements in reinforced fill structures, soil nails, rock bolts and rock surface support, and ground improvement. EN 1997-3 establishes principles and requirements for the design and verification of groundwater control measures including reduction of hydraulic conductivity, dewatering and infiltration, and the use of impermeable barriers. This document provides specific rules to be applied in the design and verification of geotechnical structures. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1990, which establishes principles and requirements for the safety, serviceability, robustness, and durability of structures, including geotechnical structures, and other construction works. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1997-1, which provides general rules for the design and This document is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1997-2, which gives provisions for determining ground properties from ground investigations. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with the other Eurocodes for the design of geotechnical structures, including temporary geotechnical structures.
