The new Narrows Bridge was built just 200 feet south of the existing bridge. Complex stratigraphy, diverse topography, fault-zones, landslide-prone slopes, contaminated soils and endangered species.

Adel Hanna: “When buildings collapse or lean, the problem usually isn’t the concrete. The problem is the ground.” Geotechnical engineers focus on the design and construction of foundations — among ...

Limit analysis has emerged as a fundamental approach in geotechnical engineering, providing robust methodologies to assess the stability and ultimate load-carrying capacity of soil–structure systems.
