1st Webinar Series on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering

he 1st Webinar Series on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering (will be held online during November 2021 to October 2022 A number of webinars by academician, eminent scientist or practicing engineer of international repute will be delivered online through social platform Cisco Webex. In last two decades, activities and requirement of GEE has increased in India due to many big infrastructure projects including high rise buildings, bridges, dams and power plants Therefore, this webinar series will help in enhancing the knowledge of faculty, students and engineers to deal with geotechnical issues during earthquakes These webinars assume great significance as it will provide a platform to review the recent developments in GEE.
