Comparative calculation design of several types of supporting structures according to Eurocode 7

Predmet završnog rada su statički proračuni dva potporna zida sa različitim geometrijskim karakteristikama. U razradi teme detaljno su opisane i obrađene najčešće korištene vrste potpornih građevina: potporni zidovi, ojačano tlo, zagati i sidrene građevine. Opisana su njihova glavna obilježja i specifičnosti te gdje se izgrađuju i njihovi proračuni za dimenzioniranje tijekom procesa projektiranja. Također su analizirane i aktualne norme i propisi iz ''Eurocode 7'' u kojem su objašnjene metode proračuna potpornih građevina. U proračunskom dijelu završnog rada napravljen je proračun nekoliko usporednih primjera potpornih zidova različitih geometrijskih karakteristika te su uspoređeni njihovi faktori sigurnosti.The subject of this undergraduate thesis is statics calculations of two retaining walls with different geometric characteristics. In the elaboration of the topic, the most commonly used types of supporting structures are described and processed in detail: retaining walls, reinforced soil, dams, and anchor structures. Their main features and specifics are described, as well as where their calculations during the design process. The current norms and regulations from ''Eurocode 7'' are also analyzed, in which the methods of calculation of supporting structures are explained. In the calculation part of the thesis, a static calculation of several comparative examples of retaining walls with different geometric characteristics were made and their safety factors were analyzed
