The commentary provides detailed foundations and explanations for a better understanding of the

analyses in soil engineering e.g. for flat footings pile foundations retaining structures
construction pit supports anchorages or slopes as well as checks against uplift and hydraulic
ground failure can be performed based on Eurocode?s partial safety concept.
