The webinar is organised jointly by ERTC10, CEN TC250/SC7 and NEN, with support of ISRM for this event. It will cover the subject of Rock Engineering, which was significantly improved in the second generation of Eurocode 7 compared to the current version. The Experts representing SC7's Rock Engineering Platform (SC7/REP) will explain:
- How rock engineering was implemented in the new code in terms of general rules in EN 1997-1.
- What we can find on relevant ground properties in the new EN 1997-2.
- What design aspects for specific geotechnical structures in EN 1997-3 have to be considered when dealing with rock masses.
