The author has been proposing a reliability based design (RBD) scheme for practicing geotechnical engineers. The essence of the proposed scheme is the separation of the geotechnical design part rom the uncertainty analysis part in geotechnical RBD. In this way, practical engineers are able to perorm RBD in a more comfortable way compared to the traditional RBD procedure. Results of RBD on some structures are presented in this paper to highlight the characteristics of the geotechnical RBD. Based n the results, some discussions are made to identify the major issues geotechnical RBD is facing. It is concluded that spatial variability of soil properties is only one of the sources of uncertainty. In many deign problems, statistical estimation error, design calculation model error and transformation error associated with estimating soil parameters (e.g. friction angle) from the measured quantities (e.g. SPT N-values) ave higher uncertainty. It is important to recognize these aspects in developing the geotechnical RBD to e next and the higher stage. f f
