CSN EN 16907-2 This document defines a common basis for description and classification for use by all parties involved in the design, planning and construction of the earthworks. This document specifies the processes and properties to be used in the description and classification of earthworks materials. It specifies soil and rock groups as a basis of material specifications for earth structure elements. This classification relates to the physical and chemical properties of the soil and rock materials.
