Deep excavations in Dallas Texas

We are launching our long time anticipated and asked by our community -  an in person Deep Excavation Workshop in Dallas, Texas! There is nothing like learning the ins and outs of deep excavation by the program's creator, Dimitrios Konstantakos.

We know you missed a real face-to-face interaction and networking with experts and it is an excellent opportunity to schedule your training with a short get-together trip! We are really excited that all engineers are joining us from throughought the country! 

In this workshop, you will learn the basics of the design of deep excavation projects. Starting from theory and simple examples to more advanced topics the workshop will be covering several common deep excavation design methods and tricks, distilling years of deep excavation design experience. The workshop will build on solid fundamentals, and help engineers minimize uncertainties in deep excavation design. 



 
REGISTER NOW AND LEARN HOW TO AVOID A ONE-MILLION DOLLAR MISTAKE!

Can't join the workshop? No problem! Sign up now, and we'll bring the workshop to you. Get the recording and all materials delivered straight to your inbox!
