| TC307 Sustainability |
Technical Committees have been asked to succinctly document the development of their areas within the sustainability in geotechnical engineering, focussing on major breakthroughs and why they came about, with collateral material (papers etc.) that support their story. To collect these inputs, an online poll has been sent to the officers of the TC307 committee. The poll was opened in mid-2021 and closed in December 2021, and 26 contributions have been received. It should be noted that this being a relatively new committee, the contributions of this committee are somewhat limited. However, there is a major interest, as evidenced by a large number of followers of the committee activities. In particular, young members are expressing strong interest in this committee's works. |
