About
This workshop offers comprehensive insights into advanced techniques for complex deep excavation projects, including Finite Element Analysis, tunnel design, transportation assessments, and reinforced embankments.
In this full day workshop, you will learn the basics of the design of complex deep excavation projects with advanced methods. The seminar will provide a strong theoretical background on the design of excavations with the Finite Element Analysis method, explain the methods and tricks for the design of tunnels and tunnel stations, transportation and benefit analysis, Pile Abutments, MSE walls and embankments with soil reinforcements and more. The workshop will build on solid fundamentals and help engineers minimize uncertainties in deep excavation design.
