AGHP - Geosynthetics Committee Case Studies Submissions

AGHP - Geosynthetics Committee

Task Group 4: Project History (Request for Information)
The “Geosynthetics for Geohazard Mitigation Committee” as one of the Technical Committees for AGHP has created a task group named “Projects History”. This task group is collecting state-of-the-art case studies of projects on which Reinforced Soil Structures have been used to mitigate rockfall or other types of Geohazards. The purpose is to help educate members of the association and other professionals about the design procedures and implementation techniques. It is planned that this catalogue of projects will be easily accessible to industry professionals and become a valuable resource.

The Technical Committee will be accepting a maximum of 2 case studies per organization for recognition in 2022. The case studies should be submitted via this form or by emailing them to the Co-Chairs of the Committee at the email addresses below before the deadline of April 15, 2022.
