This presentation will review the background to the Observational Method process. It introduces the new holistic approach to the Observational Method set out in the revised Ciria C580 (renamed C760), which is related to the Eurocode 7 requirements for the Observational Method and design parameters. Reviews of recent projects which have applied the Observational Method will be used to explain the C760 approach to design.
The use of real time monitoring and back analysis is discussed, together with current research into the reassessment of characteristic and most probable soil parameters using probabilistic methods.
Full Details to follow.
