Webinar: Soil Improvement Solutions to Increase Slope Stability under Seismic Conditions – Design and Techniques
Free Registration HERE Presented by Jason Redgers, Dr Serhat Baycan & Dr Philipp Schober from BAUER Spezialtiefbau GmbH The stability of slopes, specially when consisting of soft cohesive soils or liquefiable granular material, can be compromised during seismic event and lead to major failures. Lateral spreading or sliding failure can be induced by reduced shear strength and horizontal acceleration during a seismic event. Soil improvement techniques can be used to increase the shear strength and mitigate…
