Standard EN Sample
Earthworks. Construction Procedures
Also Known As:
BS EN 16907-3:2018 is a European standard that focuses on the construction procedures for earthworks. It provides guidance and instructions for excavating, transporting, and placing soils and rocks in order to construct earth-structures. The standard also covers the excavation and placement of rock materials underwater.
This standard emphasizes the execution phase of earthworks, following the design and optimization phase. The design phase should take into account the specific characteristics of the soil and rock materials, and their suitability for the intended purpose. However, in the case of unforeseen events or circumstances, additional design and planning are carried out during the execution of the works.
It is important to note that this standard does not encompass dredging of soils and the hydraulic placement of fills, as those aspects are covered by separate standards (EN 16907-6 and EN 16907-7).
