Spring Short Course - April 4th, 2020

Dr. D.V. Griffiths - Colorado School of Mines



The ASCE Geo-Institute Pittsburgh Chapter is excited to host Dr. D.V. Griffiths of the Colorado School of Mines for the 2020 Spring Short Course. Dr. Griffiths will be speaking on Quantitative Risk Assessment in Geotechnical Engineering, covering topics such as the rationale for probabilistic geotechnical analysis and risk assessment, the relationship between Factor of Safety and Probability of Failure, and how probabilistic methods can be applied to routine geotechnical design. 

This course will also provide exposure to software for performing geotechnical analysis. Participants are encouraged to bring laptops and to run the programs provided free of charge to all participants.

The seminar will take place at ESWP and the fee includes a continental breakfast, lunch, coffee, 7.0 PDH, and electronic and paper copies of the seminar notes. Please refer to the attached flyer for more details.
