As sustainability is becoming increasingly important within all industries, this forum aims to provide answers as to how
Geotechnical Engineers can apply sustainable solutions and reduce the environmental impact within our daily work. As
ICE reviewers are constantly expecting candidates to have a wide knowledge around sustainability, this event will be
useful for those aiming to become professionally chartered, those who wish to expand their knowledge on sustainability
and those who simply wish to find answers to questions with regards to sustainability in geotechnics.
