Keller presents ground improvement solutions which are being utilized in current geotechnical constructions. This presentation will highlight how Keller designs and installs Aggregate Piers and Rigid Inclusions and ensure they are adequately constructed. The presenters will also bring a couple of common topics that Keller engineers and project managers often discuss with structural engineers.



Learning Objectives

•  Identity appropriate ground improvement techniques for given ground conditions and structural requirements.
•  Determine appropriate load conditions for optimum ground improvement design.
