Join Geopier and the Geo-Institute for a 2 part series this spring on ground improvement in geotechnical engineering! We kick things off on February 17 with Gianni Martinez of Geopier presenting "Liquefaction Mitigation with Rammed Aggregate Pier Elements."
Mr. Martinez has over 11 years of experience in the geotechnical engineering industry and serves as Lead Engineer for West Coast projects at Geopier. He is responsible for designing Geopier ground improvement solutions and frequently designs projects where liquefaction or soft soil deposits are a concern. Mr. Martinez holds a B.S. degree from Universidad Rafael Landivar in Guatemala and an M.S. degree from Virginia Tech.
When it comes to ground improvement, Geopier is the industry leader. With Geopier, you can design and build with confidence because we empower you to achieve cost-effective, proven, engineered solutions that meet your project pricing and schedule objectives. We work with you to develop a cost-efficient design that allows for higher design bearing pressures, greater settlement control, and reduced construction schedules. Celebrating 25 years of project excellence, we specialize in Rammed Aggregate Pier®, rigid inclusions, slope reinforcement and railway subgrade improvement solutions. There is no soil type or structure we cannot handle. For more information on Geopier solutions, call 800-371-7470, visit www.geopier.com, or email info@geopier.com.
The Geo-Institute is a technical society with about 12,000 geotechnical engineers and geologists as members. Find out more or join at http://www.geoinstitute.org.
