Saturday morning 27th July 2013 at head office of PECC1 the seminar between PECC1’s experts and professor Pau G Marions (former President of World Assocciates on Geology, one among top experts in engineering geology of dam, karst, rock slope stability) on application of engineering geology, rock mechanics and geo-technics in construction for green development.
This seminar was organized by Vietnam Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineer (VSSMGE), Vietnam Society of Rock Mechanics and PECC1. Participating to the seminar were experienced geologists, engineers of PECC1 who have involved in site investigation, engineering design of large hydropower projects executed in Vietnam and abroad including Yaly ECRD dam, Son La RCC dam, Lai Chau RCC dam, Tuyen Quang CFRD dam, etc…
Senior geologist Mr. Nguyen Van Tu made his presentation
During the seminar, Prof Paul G Marinos had exchanged lots of experiences on investigation, treatment of works constructed in karstic terrain. The professor had presented some main experiences in engineering design of work constructed on surface and underground within karstic limestone terrain including how to select the water level for a reservoir, seepage treatment to hydropower projects constructed in karstic terrain or how to select suitable and reasonable drainage method for underground works developed in karstic terrain.
Presentation of Prof. Paul G Marinos
Prof. Paul G Marinos and associates
With this seminar, PECC1’s experts have gained lots of experiences and knowledges which can be applied in real conditions of projects involved by PECC1.
