Dr. Vaughan Griffiths of the Colorado School of Mines will start his 11-city Cross Canada Lecture Tour in Winnipeg on April 10 and finish it in Ottawa on April 21. Check www.cgs.ca under ‘Upcoming Events’ and ‘Cross-Canada Lecture Tour’ for a schedule of locations, dates, times and lecture topics.
The CCLT lecture series is generously sponsored by the Canadian Foundation for Geotechnique – corporate sponsors of the spring lecture include BGC Engineering, Klohn Crippen Berger, and Thurber Engineering.
Planning is underway for a live webcast of Dr. Griffiths’ Monday April 17 lecture from St. John’s on ‘Finite Element Stability Analysis’ and his Thursday, April 20 lecture from Montréal on ‘Risk Assessment in Geotechnical Engineering’. A special e-news will be sent to all CGS members as the operational details of these webcasts are finalized.
