Good geotechnical information is critical for selecting proper trenchless technology, design and determining construction risks and costs. This workshop will discuss the geotechnical investigations and requirements for different trenchless construction methods. It will cover industry’s good practice guidelines and standards for preparing geotechnical reports for preparing geotechnical reports for successful trenchless projects. Case studies will highlight good practices to avoid construction difficulties, project delays and costly construction claims.
