6. Justification for a deep foundation
6.1 Limit states to consider
The design justifications for a deep foundation are carried out in accordance with Eurocode 7 (AFNOR, 2005a and 2007a) and its national application standard NF P 94-262 (AFNOR, 2012).
The boundary states to be considered concern :
the floor ;
foundation materials ;
if necessary, displacements which, if exceeded, could adversely affect the performance of the supported structure.
For the verification of ultimate limit states (ULS), the applied loads are calculated for the combinations of actions given in paragraph
