From the basics of Eurocode 7 to cutting edge Geotechnical design techniques
|
||
|
Sheffield | 20 Feb 13 | 6:00pm - 8:30pm Dr Colin Smith and Dr Matthew Gilbert will present the key features of Eurocode 7, its use in ultimate limit state design and application to elements such as foundations and retaining walls. Discontinuity Layout Optimization (DLO), which allows the engineer to directly and straightforwardly determine the collapse (or ultimate limit) state for any geotechnical problem geometry, will also be discussed.

|
New Jersey | 26 Oct 11 - 28 Oct 11 | 2:00pm This course is organized by ADAMA Engineering and is designed to help attendees appreciate and implement mechanically stabilized earth walls and reinforced soil slopes using Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and Allowable Stress Design (ASD) methods. It is suitable for geotechnical engineers, design specialists, construction engineers; consulting engineers and members of the academic community. Dr Gilbert will be presenting on the topic of "Recent Developments in Limit Analysis and Limit State Design of Reinforced Soil" on Friday 28th October. [more...] |
Recent developments in limit analysis and limit state design of reinforced soil
|

|
Louvain-la-Neuve | 27 Jun 11 | 5:30pm In this conference two powerful techniques which have recently become available to geotechnical engineers involved in the design of conventional and reinforced soil constructions will be described. In the first presentation Prof. Dov Leshchinsky will describe how the diagnostic Safety Map (SM) tool can be used to design reinforced slopes and walls. In the second presentation Drs. Colin Smith and Matthew Gilbert will describe how the recently developed Discontinuity Layout Optimization (DLO) limit analysis procedure can bridge the gap between simple hand-based analysis methods and much more complex incremental techniques (e.g. based on non-linear finite elements), providing an easy to use general purpose geotechnical analysis tool that may be directly applied in ultimate limit state design.
