Learn about the importance of geotechnical engineering from the perspective of a construction manager.
In 2006 FHWA issued the two-volume manual titled "Soils and Foundations" which has served as FHWA's flagship product for geotechnical engineering. An update of the manual is titled "Geotechnical Fundamentals […]
This workshop on soil nail walls will help gain a better understanding of the design and construction procedures using concepts of limit states that will be indexed to the latest guidelines based on the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) methodology of the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHTO) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls are used extensively for grade-separation fill structures in many applications, e.g., highways, railways, marine, commercial, etc. To avoid adverse performance issues, design processes for an […]
Drilled shaft foundations in soils and rocks are often a technically sound and cost-effective choice where a deep foundation solution is appropriate based on site conditions, applied loads, project schedule, […]

This webinar presents an infiltration-based approach that can help realize rational and economical deep foundation designs in ephemeral streambeds. Such an approach leads to better use of taxpayer dollars along with environmental benefits such as a reduced carbon footprint and sustainable use of natural resources.
