The AGS is pleased to announce the next webinar will be taking place on the topic; Instrumentation and Monitoring: How Not to Get it Wrong, on Wednesday 21st June 2023 at 11am.

Instrumentation and Monitoring: How Not to Get it Wrong is a CPD webinar which will identify the importance of instrumentation and monitoring (I&M) in Geotechnical Engineering and, as such, will focus on how to obtain reliable field monitoring data.

Sponsored by Geosense and Terra Insights, this webinar will underline the need to give early consideration to the definition of the I&M scope and I&M plan, taking into account the specific risks and opportunities of each project and the transversal nature of I&M across several disciplines.

The fundamental importance of correctly installing the right instrument in the right place will be illustrated with the help of practical examples for a selection of exemplar instruments. To this extent, the webinar will focus on typical instruments choices and installation issues, and how to avoid these. The need for dedicated, focussed training and education will also receive attention, together with considerations around field monitoring data validation, analysis and interpretation.

The webinar will be of benefit for professionals, technicians and specialists involved in Geotechnical projects.
