Communication of risks within a transparent and accountable
framework is essential in view of increasing mobility and the
complexity of the modern society and the field of geotechnical
engineering does not form an exception. As a result, modern risk
assessment and management are required in all aspects of
geotechnical issues, such as planning, design, construction of
geotechnical structures, mitigation of geo-hazards, management of
large construction projects, maintenance of structures and
life-cycle cost evaluation. This volume discusses: 1. Evaluation
and control of uncertainties through investigation, design and
construction of geotechnical structures; 2. Performance-based
specifications, reliability based design and limit state design of
geotechnical structures, and design code developments; 3. Risk
assessment and management of geo-hazards, such as landslides,
earthquakes, debris flow, etc.; 4. Risk management issues
concerning large geotechnical construction projects; 5. Repair and
maintenance strategies of geotechnical structures. Intended for
researchers and practitioners in geotechnical, geological,
infrastructure and construction engineering.
