- Welcome and membership. Many ISSMGE member societies nominated new TC210 members in the first half of 2021. The latest roasters of the committee can be found at https://www.issmge.org/committees/technical-committees/applications/embankment-dams. Welcome new members!
- ISSMGE Time Capsule Project (TCP) (https://www.issmge.org/the-society/time-capsule)
- The Time Capsule project will be launched on 1-6 May 2022, 20th ICSMGE, Sydney, Australia. TC210 will have a special TCP session.
- Call for a series of state-of-the-art review articles on major aspects of the design, construction and maintenance of embankment dams. No word limit (can be a few pages or very long). If you would like to prepare a TCP paper, please send your suggested tittle to me or Dr Rui Wang. We will then discuss with you matters about format, scope etc.
- TC210 has so far three on-going TCP projects:
- Assessment and management of landslide dam risks (Dr Ming Peng, Tongji University, China)
- Cemented coarse granular embankment dams (Dr Duruo, Tsinghua University)
- Interface mechanical behavior of rockfill dams (Dr Rui Wang, Tsinghua Univ)
- Submissions from Europe, north and south America, Africa, Australasia and the rest part of Asia are most welcome.
- TC210 special session in the 4th Int. Conf. on Performance-based Design in Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering, 15 -17 July 2022, Beijing. (http://www.pbd-iv2021.com). Papers are solicited from TC210 members.
- Workshop (ISSMGE TC201 and TC210, ICOLD TC E and TC LE) over ISC 6, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest (Coordinator: Emke Imre)
