Proceedings of the International Symposium on New Generation Design Codes for Geotechnical Engineering Practice - Taipei 2006 : National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taipei, Taiwan, 2-3 November 2006 /

Communication of design risk within a transparent and rational framework is necessary in view of the increasing interest in code harmonization, public involvement in defining acceptable risk levels, and risk-sharing among client, consultant, insurer, and financier. Activities in code harmonization a...
