EN 1998-5:2004 (E)4ForewordThis European Standard EN 1998–5, Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquakeresistance: Foundations, retaining structures and geotechnical aspects, has beenprepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 250 "Structural Eurocodes", the secretariatof which is held by BSI. CEN/TC 250 is responsible for all Structural Eurocodes.This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either bypublication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2005, andconflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2010.This document supersedes ENV 1998–5:1994.According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the National StandardOrganisations of the following countries are bound to implement this EuropeanStandard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.Background of the Eurocode programmeIn 1975, the Commission of the European Community decided on an action programmein the field of construction, based on article 95 of the Treaty. The objective of theprogramme was the elimination of technical obstacles to trade and the harmonisation oftechnical specifications.Within this action programme, the Commission took the initiative to establish a set ofharmonised technical rules for the design of construction works which, in a first stage,would serve as an alternative to the national rules in force in the Member States and,ultimately, would replace them.For fifteen years, the Commission, with the help of a Steering Committee withRepresentatives of Member States, conducted the development of the Eurocodesprogramme, which led to the first generation of European codes in the 1980’s.In 1989, the Commission and the Member States of the EU and EFTA decided, on thebasis of an agreement1 between the Commission and CEN, to transfer the preparationand the publication of the Eurocodes to CEN through a series of Mandates, in order toprovide them with a future status of European Standard (EN). This links de facto theEurocodes with the provisions of all the Council’s Directives and/or Commission’sDecisions dealing with European standards (e.g. the Council Directive 89/106/EEC onconstruction products - CPD - and Council Directives 93/37/EEC, 92/50/EEC and89/440/EEC on public works and services and equivalent EFTA Directives initiated inpursuit of setting up the internal market).
1 Agreement between the Commission of the European Communities and the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN)concerning the work on EUROCODES for the design of building and civil engineering works (BC/CEN/03/89).
EN 1998-5:2004 (E)5The Structural Eurocode programme comprises the following standards generallyconsisting of a number of Parts:EN 1990Eurocode :Basis of Structural DesignEN 1991Eurocode 1:Actions on structuresEN 1992Eurocode 2:Design of concrete structuresEN 1993Eurocode 3:Design of steel structuresEN 1994Eurocode 4:Design of composite steel and concrete structuresEN 1995Eurocode 5:Design of timber structuresEN 1996Eurocode 6:Design of masonry structuresEN 1997Eurocode 7:Geotechnical designEN 1998Eurocode 8:Design of structures for earthquake resistanceEN 1999Eurocode 9:Design of aluminium structuresEurocode standards recognise the responsibility of regulatory authorities in eachMember State and have safeguarded their right to determine values related to regulatorysafety matters at national level where these continue to vary from State to State.Status and field of application of EurocodesThe Member States of the EU and EFTA recognise that Eurocodes serve as referencedocuments for the following purposes:– as a means to prove compliance of building and civil engineering works with theessential requirements of Council Directive 89/106/EEC, particularly EssentialRequirement N°1 – Mechanical resistance and stability – and Essential RequirementN°2 – Safety in case of fire ;– as a basis for specifying contracts for construction works and related engineeringservices ;– as a framework for drawing up harmonised technical specifications for constructionproducts (ENs and ETAs)The Eurocodes, as far as they concern the construction works themselves, have a directrelationship with the Interpretative Documents2 referred to in Article 12 of the CPD,although they are of a different nature from harmonised product standards3. Therefore,technical aspects arising from the Eurocodes work need to be adequately considered byCEN Technical Committees and/or EOTA Working Groups working on productstandards with a view to achieving full compatibility of these technical specificationswith the Eurocodes.
2 According to Art. 3.3 of the CPD, the essential requirements (ERs) shall be given concrete form in interpretative documents for thecreation of the necessary links between the essential requirements and the mandates for harmonised ENs and ETAGs/ETAs.3 According to Art. 12 of the CPD the interpretative documents shall :a) give concrete form to the essential requirements by harmonising the terminology and the technical bases and indicating classesor levels for each requirement where necessary ;b) indicate methods of correlating these classes or levels of requirement with the technical specifications, e.g. methods ofcalculation and of proof, technical rules for project design, etc. ;c) serve as a reference for the establishment of harmonised standards and guidelines for European technical approvals.The Eurocodes, de facto, play a similar role in the field of the ER 1 and a part of ER 2.
EN 1998-5:2004 (E)6The Eurocode standards provide common structural design rules for everyday use forthe design of whole structures and component products of both a traditional and aninnovative nature. Unusual forms of construction or design conditions are notspecifically covered and additional expert consideration will be required by the designerin such cases.National Standards implementing EurocodesThe National Standards implementing Eurocodes will comprise the full text of theEurocode (including any annexes), as published by CEN, which may be preceded by aNational title page and National foreword, and may be followed by a National annex.The National annex may only contain information on those parameters which are leftopen in the Eurocode for national choice, known as Nationally Determined Parameters,to be used for the design of buildings and civil engineering works to be constructed inthe country concerned, i.e. :– values and/or classes where alternatives are given in the Eurocode,– values to be used where a symbol only is given in the Eurocode,–
country specific data (geographical, climatic, etc.), e.g. snow map,– the procedure to be used where alternative procedures are given in the Eurocode.It may also contain– decisions on the application of informative annexes,– references to non-contradictory complementary information to assist the user toapply the Eurocode.Links between Eurocodes and harmonised technical specifications (ENs and ETAs)for productsThere is a need for consistency between the harmonised technical specifications forconstruction products and the technical rules for works4. Furthermore, all theinformation accompanying the CE Marking of the construction products which refer toEurocodes shall clearly mention which Nationally Determined Parameters have beentaken into account.Additional information specific to EN 1998-5The scope of Eurocode 8 is defined in EN 1998-1:2004, 1.1.1 and the scope of this Partof Eurocode 8 is defined in 1.1. Additional Parts of Eurocode 8 are listed in EN 1998-1:2004, 1.1.3.

EN 1998-5:2004 (E)7 EN 1998-5:2004 is intended for use by:- clients (e.g. for the formulation of their specific requirements on reliabilitylevels and durability) ;- designers and constructors ;- relevant authorities.For the design of structures in seismic regions the provisions of this European Standardare to be applied in addition to the provisions of the other relevant parts of Eurocode 8and the other relevant Eurocodes. In particular, the provisions of this European Standardcomplement those of EN 1997-1:2004, which do not cover the special requirements ofseismic design.Owing to the combination of uncertainties in seismic actions and ground materialproperties, Part 5 may not cover in detail every possible design situation and its properuse may require specialised engineering judgement and experience.National annex for EN 1998-5This standard gives alternative procedures, values and recommendations for classeswith notes indicating where national choices may have to be made. Therefore theNational Standard implementing EN 1998-5 should have a National annex containingall Nationally Determined Parameters to be used for the design of buildings and civilengineering works to be constructed in the relevant country.National choice is allowed in EN 1998-5:2004 through clauses:ReferenceItem1.1 (4)Informative Annexes A, C, D and F3.1 (3)Partial factors for material properties4.1.4 (11)Upper stress limit for susceptibility to liquefaction5.2 (2)c)Reduction of peak ground acceleration with depth from ground surface

EN 1998-5:2004 (E)122 SEISMIC ACTION2.1 Definition of the seismic action(1)PThe seismic action shall be consistent with the basic concepts and definitionsgiven in EN 1998-1:2004, 3.2 taking into account the provisions given in 4.2.2.(2)PCombinations of the seismic action with other actions shall be carried outaccording to EN 1990:2002, 6.4.3.4 and EN 1998-1:2004, 3.2.4.(3) Simplifications in the choice of the seismic action are introduced in thisEuropean Standard wherever appropriate.2.2 Time-history representation(1)PIf time-domain analyses are performed, both artificial accelerograms and realstrong motion recordings may be used. Their peak value and frequency content shall beas specified in EN 1998-1:2004, 3.2.3.1.(2)In verifications of dynamic stability involving calculations of permanent grounddeformations the excitation should preferably consist of accelerograms recorded on soilsites in real earthquakes, as they possess realistic low frequency content and proper timecorrelation between horizontal and vertical components of motion. The strong motionduration should be selected in a manner consistent with EN 1998-1:2004, 3.2.3.1.
EN 1998-5:2004 (E)133 GROUND PROPERTIES3.1 Strength parameters(1)The value of the soil strength parameters applicable under static undrainedconditions may generally be used. For cohesive soils the appropriate strength parameteris the undrained shear strength cu, adjusted for the rapid rate of loading and cyclicdegradation effects under the earthquake loads when such an adjustment is needed andjustified by adequate experimental evidence. For cohesionless soil the appropriatestrength parameter is the cyclic undrained shear strength τcy,u which should take thepossible pore pressure build-up into account.(2)Alternatively, effective strength parameters with appropriate pore water pressuregenerated during cyclic loading may be used. For rocks the unconfined compressivestrength, qu , may be used.(3)The partial factors (γM) for material properties cu, τcy,u and qu are denoted as γcu,γτcy and γqu, and those for tan φ′ are denoted as γφ′.NOTE The values ascribed to γcu, γτcy, γqu, and γφ′ for use in a country may be found in its NationalAnnex. The recommended values are γcu = 1,4, γτcy = 1,25, γqu = 1,4, and γφ′ = 1,25.3.2 Stiffness and damping parameters(1)Due to its influence on the design seismic actions, the main stiffness parameterof the ground under earthquake loading is the shear modulus G, given by2sρν=G(3.1)where ρ is the unit mass and vs is the shear wave propagation velocity of the ground.(2)Criteria for the determination of vs, including its dependence on the soil strainlevel, are given in 4.2.2 and 4.2.3.(3)Damping should be considered as an additional ground property in the caseswhere the effects of soil-structure interaction are to be taken into account, specified inSection 6.(4)Internal damping, caused by inelastic soil behaviour under cyclic loading, andradiation damping, caused by seismic waves propagating away from the foundation,should be considered separately.
