This standard is applicable to the calculation of earth-pressure on construction works. The earth-pressure assessments contained relate to the planar and spatial cases for the active and passive limit state and for the states of stress in-between. The rules incorporated in the standard allow for a unified procedure possible for earth-pressure assessments in constructional calculations. They contain appropriate simplifications necessary to the state of knowledge. The standard does not apply for construction works using mining techniques. This standard has been prepared by Working Committee NA 005-05-04 AA "Baugrund; Berechnungsverfahren" ("Subsoil; calculation methods") at DIN Standards Committee Building and Civil Engineering (NABau).
This document replaces DIN 4085:2011-05 .
