The latest 4th edition of the international standard on the
principles of reliability for load bearing structures
(ISO2394:2015) includes a new Annex D dedicated to the reliability
of geotechnical structures. The emphasis in Annex D is to identify
and characterize critical elements of the geotechnical
reliability-based design process. This book contains a wealth of
data and information to assist geotechnical engineers with the
implementation of semi-probabilistic or full probabilistic design
approaches within the context of established geotechnical
knowledge, principles, and experience. The introduction to the book
presents an overview on how reliability can play a complementary
role within prevailing norms in geotechnical practice to address
situations where some measured data and/or past experience exist
for limited site-specifi c data to be supplemented by both
objective regional data and subjective judgment derived from
comparable sites elsewhere. The principles of reliability as
presented in ISO2394:2015 provides the common basis for
harmonization of structural and geotechnical design. The balance of
the chapters describes the uncertainty representation of
geotechnical design parameters, the statistical characterization of
multivariate geotechnical data and model factors,
semi-probabilistic and direct probability-based design methods in
accordance to the outline of Annex D. This book elaborates and
reinforces the goal of Annex D to advance geotechnical
reliability-based design with geotechnical needs at the forefront
while complying with the general principles of reliability given by
ISO2394:2015. It serves as a supplementary reference to Annex D and
it is a must-read for designing geotechnical structures in
compliance with ISO2394:2015.
