Seismic performance is a critical factor in structural design—especially when it comes to how the ground beneath a structure behaves during an earthquake. In particular, sites with saturated, loose sandy or silty soils are vulnerable to liquefaction, which can lead to severe ground deformation and a loss of support for foundations. The cost of addressing these issues can be significant, depending on the selected foundation support system and performance criteria

Join us for this informative webinar where we’ll explore how the Geopier® ground improvement approach—specifically using Rammed Aggregate Pier® (RAP) elements—can effectively reduce seismically induced deformations.

You’ll gain a clear understanding of: 

  • The basic principles of liquefaction including where and when it occurs and why it matters
  • The mechanisms by which RAP elements stabilize soils and limit deformation
  • Real-world case studies and field demonstrations that show RAP performance in action Boost your geotechnical industry knowledge


Don't wait! Reserve your seat today!
 

 Whether you're a geotechnical engineer, structural designer, or project manager, this session will equip you with practical insights into a proven solution that controls deformations in liquefiable soils for a stable, safe foundation.

 A recording of the webinar will be sent to all who register.

Duration: 1 hour // Attendees are eligible to receive 1 PDH
