This report provides background information and supporting material for reliability requirements for geotechnical structures, specifically focusing on the target values for the reliability index (or equivalently, the target probability of failure) for different reference periods, i.e. 50 years or annual. This work was carried out within the SITO program of Deltares with the aim of informing choices for the second-generation Eurocodes.
