Standardization committee for foundation design in standard division proposes a completely new concept design code for geotechnical engineering and foundation field -nick named Geo-code 21-. Before starting this committee, the research committee for harmonization of foundation design and geotechnical investigation discussed hierarchy of the design code system, management of geotechnical data. These discussion are reflected in the proposed design code. Geo-code 21 has chapters for some foundation types. In these chapters, the items to be considered in the design are written neither too much nor too little. This code will make harmonization of the codes used in each organization and will be a single voice of the Japanese code to the world.
