Perth – Offshore Geohazards and Geotechnics: Risks and Opportunities Course

This one-day course explains offshore geology, geohazards and geotechnical engineering, adopting a holistic approach to show how they interact and how an improved understanding of all three disciplines can lead to optimised infrastructure solutions.
The course will explain what can be achieved using different site characterisation techniques (geophysics, geotechnical investigation and laboratory testing) and how an integrated ground model can be used to reduce risk and increase value.
