DIN EN ISO 18674:2013-08

This document applies to performance monitoring of the ground, structures interacting with the ground and geotechnical works. Specifically, this Standard applies to field instrumentation and measurements carried out - in connection with site investigations of soils and rocks in accordance with EN 1997-2; - in connection with the Observational Design procedure in accordance with EN 1997-1; - for ground behaviour evaluation, e. g. unstable slopes, consolidation etc. - for the proof or follow-up of a new equilibrium within the ground, after disturbance of its natural state by construction measures (e. g. foundation loads, excavation of soil, tunnelling); - for the proof or follow-up of the stability, serviceability and safety of structures which may be influenced by geotechnical construction; - for perpetuation of evidence; - for the evaluation and control of geotechnical works.
