Implementing the Extended Multivariate Approach in Design with Partial Factors for a Retaining Wall in Clay

Limitations with the current design using partial factors in Eurocode 7 have been identified. Uncertainties in the material properties are incorporated in both the cautious estimate of the characte ...
