Presentation / Conference Contribution
(2015, September). Geotechnical Engineering for Infrastructure and Development, XVI European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Edinburgh. Presented at XVI European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ECSMGE), Edinburgh, Scotland

Geotechnical engineering is a discipline that plays a critical role within all infrastructure and development projects. Failure to adequately account for the influence of the ground regularly leads to increased costs that often can be disproportionat...
