Webinar | Modulus of Subgrade Reactions Beyond Soil Reports for Structural Engineers
Available On-Demand
While soil reports provide a starting point, they’re not the be-all and end-all. In geotechnical engineering, we often encounter soils that are as complex and unpredictable as the weather. They’re layered, heterogeneous, anisotropic, nonlinear, and exhibit a range of time-, stress-, and strain-dependent behaviors. This complexity renders empirical equations somewhat inadequate, highlighting the need for more nuanced and advanced analysis.
The webinar consists of:
- Rethinking Conventional Methods
- Risks of Relying Solely on Soil Reports
- Comprehensive Approach for Structural Engineers
- Role of SSI & 3D FEA
- Aligning with SBC 303 & Local Codes
- Case Studies from Saudi Arabia and the GCC
- Going Further? Innovative tools: AI, ML, InSAR Satellite Remote Sensing
- Q&A Session
Join us for an informative webinar where we’ll delve into the fascinating world of PLAXIS.
