Decoding Eurocode 7 training Design of deep foundations
- Course focuses on practical design of deep foundations to Eurocode 7.
- Delegates gain detailed knowledge to apply in practical design situations.
- Topics include embedded retaining walls, pile foundations, and anchors.
- Intended for geotechnical engineers, civil engineers, and regulators.
- Course delivered by Dr Andrew Bond, expert in Eurocode 7 maintenance.
Overview
The Online Design of Deep Foundations Training course focuses on providing delegates with a detailed understanding of designing deep foundations according to Eurocode 7. The course covers practical aspects of design, including embedded retaining walls, piles, and anchors. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped to apply Eurocode 7 principles to real-world design scenarios. The course is suitable for geotechnical engineers, civil engineers, and others involved in deep foundation design. Dr. Andrew Bond, an expert in Eurocode 7, leads the course, which can be taken in-person or online.
Who should attend
Geotechnical Engineers, Engineering Geologists, Civil Engineers, Structural Engineers
Course Content
Pre-requisites
Delegates should have a basic understanding of geotechnical design, and have attended
our Decoding Eurocode 7 – Basis of geotechnical design (or similar) course.
Eurocode 7 is the current European and British standard for geotechnical design. This
course takes a detailed look at those clauses that deal with deep foundations, such as
embedded retaining walls and piles. The course concentrates on practical aspects of
design, which delegates will need to understand in order to implement the code.
Practical tutorials show delegates how to design deep foundations to Eurocode 7.
Aims and objectives
On completion of this course, delegates will have a detailed knowledge of the design of
deep foundations to Eurocode 7 and be able to apply them to practical design
situations.
