Design Issues for Large Earth Structures: Stress, Deformation, FOS and Liquefaction

“Static and seismic liquefaction induced damages of earth structures” is a challenging topic in the geotechnical and earthquake engineering field. A case study and research-based lecture will be delivered by a prominent Geotechnical Engineer from CANADA. Large earth structures such as embankment dams and industrial waste facilities are very high to extreme hazard structures. The design, construction, and operation of these facilities require a higher standard of care and the application of state-of-the-art technologies and best practices.
