NA+A1:2014 to BS EN 1997-1:2004+A1:2013 PDF Download

The UK National Annex to Eurocode 7, titled "Geotechnical Design - General Rules," is a document that provides specific guidance and requirements for geotechnical design in the United Kingdom. It has been developed by the BSI Technical Committee, B/526, Geotechnics.

This National Annex is intended to be used in conjunction with two European standards: BS EN 1997-1:2004, which covers the geotechnical design of structures, and BS EN 1990:2002, which provides the basis for structural design. By incorporating the principles and provisions of these European standards, the UK National Annex ensures that geotechnical design in the country is in compliance with the broader framework of European regulations.

The National Annex provides additional specifications and parameters that are specific to the UK geotechnical context. This includes factors such as ground conditions, materials, design approaches, and construction practices that are relevant to the country. By utilizing the National Annex, geotechnical engineers and designers in the UK can ensure that their projects meet the specific requirements and considerations of the local context, while still adhering to the fundamental principles of Eurocode 7.
