Earthworks - Part 6: Land reclamation earthworks using dredged hydraulic fill

This European Standard deals with underwater excavation and hydraulic placement of fill material for land reclamation projects providing structural support. The main focus is on soils that exhibit drained behaviour during and after placement.
This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for site related data to be acquired before the tender and execution stage of a dredging and land reclamation project.
This European Standard gives guidance on how the selection of the dredging equipment shall be undertaken. It also gives guidance on the selection of a borrow area.
This European Standard offers the general principles on how to design the actual execution of a hydraulic fill project and offers guidelines for monitoring and quality control of that execution in order to guarantee that the fill mass exhibits the behaviour as intended by the designer of the land reclamation.
This European Standard neither gives prescriptions nor recommendations or guidance on dredging of rock, mine tailings, mineral wastes and contaminated soils.
This European Standard aims at facilitating mutual understanding of all parties involved in designing the execution of a hydraulic fill project. It gives a framework to arrive at clear and unambiguous goals and arrangements. The main purpose of this European Standard is to ensure that functional requirements and specifications for such projects are in harmony with site boundary conditions and construction methods.

EN 16907-6:2018 (E) 5 European foreword This document (EN 16907-6:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 396 “Earthworks”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2019, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2019. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document is one of the European Standards within the framework series of EN 16907 on Earthworks. The set of standards prepared by CEN/TC 396 is divided into several parts, which correspond to different steps of the planning, execution and control of earthworks and should be considered collectively as a group of standards for executing earthworks. The full set of Parts is as follows: — EN 16907-1 Earthworks — Part 1: Principles and general rules; — EN 16907-2 Earthworks — Part 2: Classification of materials; — EN 16907-3 Earthworks — Part 3: Construction procedures; — EN 16907-4 Earthworks — Part 4: Soil treatment with lime and/or hydraulic binders; — EN 16907-5 Earthworks — Part 5: Quality control; — EN 16907-6 Earthworks — Part 6: Land reclamation earthworks using dredged hydraulic fill (this document); — EN 16907-7 Earthworks — Part 7: Hydraulic placement of extractive waste. Within this standard references to specific parts of the standard are written by the full reference (e.g. “EN 16907-2”). These “Earthworks standards” do not apply to the environmental planning and geotechnical design that determines the required form and properties of the earth-structure that is to be constructed. They apply to the design of the earthworks materials, execution, monitoring and checking of earthworks construction processes to ensure that the completed earth-structure satisfies the geotechnical design. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

EN 16907-6:2018 (E) 6 Introduction Dredging and land reclamation projects generally have three main stages: Pre-construction (Initiative, Initiation, Earth-structure Design and Procurement), Construction (including the earthworks design of a dredged hydraulic fill project) and Post-construction (Use and End of life). This standard covers the execution stage of land reclamation with dredged hydraulic fill and the associated design of the works. The design of a land reclamation itself is not covered in detail in this standard. For the geotechnical design aspects of land reclamation works, reference is made to EN 1997-1, Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design - Part 1: General rules and the relevant parts of the EN 1998 series Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance. The principles of dredging and hydraulic fill equipment are discussed in outline. For more detail reference is made to textbooks such as the Hydraulic Fill Manual [1]. SIST EN 16907-6:2019



EN 16907-6:2018 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard deals with underwater excavation and hydraulic placement of fill material for land reclamation projects. The scope is limited to soils that exhibit free-draining behaviour during and after placement. The main purpose of this European Standard is to ensure that functional requirements and specifications for such projects are in harmony with site boundary conditions and construction methods. This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for site related data to be acquired before the procurement and execution stage of a dredging and land reclamation project. This European Standard gives guidance on how the selection of the dredging equipment shall be undertaken. It also gives guidance on the selection of a borrow area and on the judgement regarding the suitability of the fill material for the project. This European Standard offers the general principles on how to design the actual execution of a dredged hydraulic fill project and offers guidelines for monitoring and quality control of that execution in order to guarantee that the fill mass exhibits the behaviour as intended by the designer of the land reclamation. This European Standard does not cover dredging and/or placement of rock, mine tailings, mineral wastes and contaminated soils. 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.
