The webinar introduces basic definitions and applications of Risk Assessment to Geotechnical Engineering. The main objective of the webinar is to provide a sound overview of the principles, methods and implications of framing Geotechnical Engineering practice within a Quantitative Risk Assessment. As demonstrated in the book, RFEM performs better in real-world applications than traditional risk assessment tools that do not properly account for the spatial variability of geomaterials. This text is divided into two parts: Part One, Theory, explains the theory underlying risk assessment methods in geotechnical engineering.
Qualitative Geotechnical Risk Analysis 25 If any other person deals with issues directly relevant to geotechnical design and construction (such as utility relocation or in some cases structures), that person should be invited to the risk assessment workshop also. 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 aspe.

Risk Assessment in Geotechnical Engineering by Gordon A. Fenton. Risk Assessment in Geotechnical Engineering introduces an innovative reliability-based method for risk assessment in geotechnical engineering that allows engineers to create a better model for analyzing the properties and possible failure of a slope, mine shaft, foundation, embankment, or surface soil.

This text presents a thorough examination of the theories and methodologies available for risk assessment in geotechnical engineering, spanning the full range from established single-variable and "first order" methods to the most recent, advanced numerical developments.
Risk and Reliability in Geotechnical Engineering presents all the "need-to-know" information for a non-specialist to calculate and interpret the reliability index and risk of geotechnical structures in a realistic and robust way.
It suits engineers, researchers, and students who are interested in the practical outcomes of reliability and risk analyses without going into the intricacies of the underlying 5/5(1).
An additional unique feature of the current text is that the programs used in the geotechnical applications discussed in the second half of the book are made freely available for download from The text is organized into two main parts with Part 1 devoted to theory and Part 2 to practice.

It suits engineers, researchers, and students who are interested in the practical outcomes of reliability and risk analyses without going into the intricacies of the underlying. There are many situations in geotechnical engineering where design codes are not sufficient and in these cases the designer may choose between a deterministic ‘worst credible’ approach, or a risk-based approach to solve the problem.
