Design of foundations accounting for parametric uncertainties and comparison with Eurocode 7

Eurocode has become the main standards for structural design of buildings and civil engineering works in Singapore. Even though it is one of the world's most advanced and established building codes, it has its own limitation. It is very conservative and do not produce much insights to the relat...
