Risk-based Design in Geosynthetics | Part 3
from The AGRU America Podcast · host AGRU America
#003 Chris Richgels, a civil engineer with over 24 years of experience in solid waste engineering, discusses “Risk-based Design” in geosynthetics. There is a saying in the industry that, "nothing is ever built the way that it was designed." When planning projects with geosynthetic, among the greatest risks to account for is the design itself. There are often secondary systems and items that are overlooked during the design process, which can lead to cumulative impacts to system stability. In this episode, we will be exploring the third and final part of our series on risk-based design with geosynthetics. Specifically, how to manage risk during the design of geosynthetic systems.
