Theme
We are pleased to welcome you to our International Workshop on Frozen Soil Engineering. The aim of the workshop is to present and discuss the latest research results and practical experiences with experts from different fields of frozen soil engineering in order to share knowledge and create common value. We also aim to identify research gaps related to frozen soils, permafrost and ground freezing by sharing the latest scientific and practical experiences through presentations and discussions.
The first morning session will focus on new results from the international collaboration between the geotechnical departments of the University of Rome Tor Vergata and the Technical University of Munich, additional national research projects as well as recent developments and trends in permafrost research. Furthermore, a first case study will report on the implementation of an AGF measure at the railway station in Bern.
The first afternoon session will be dedicated to the planning and implementation of AGF measures, including a report from the international HS2 project in London.
The event will conclude with three more exciting examples of AGF implementation, including the status of AGF design standardization.
This international workshop is organised with the group of Prof. Francesca Casini of the Department of Civil Engineering and Computer Science Engineering of the University of Rome Tor Vergata. The initiation and international collaboration between the groups of Prof. Cudmani and Prof. Casini is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
