Pres ented by Chris Kelln, PhD, P.Eng., Vice President of Engineering
We are bringing down Chris Kelln, the VP of Engineering at GEOSLOPE Intern ational for this 1/2 day short course and hands-on workshop on their popula r software program, Slope/W.
This half-day workshop will focus on slo
pe stability analysis using SLOPE/W, with an emphasis on integrating pore-w
ater pressures and stresses from SEEP/W and SIGMA/W, respectively. Topics w
ill include an overview of the software user interface, a brief review of l
imit equilibrium theory and convergence, and the stability analysis of geot
echnical structures in response to transient pore-water pressure changes. O
ther topics will include modeling reinforcement and an introduction to GeoS
tudio 3D (time permitting).
Attendees will be provided with a 3
0-day activation license along with the necessary resources for hands-on ex
ercises.
GEOSLOPE normally offers workshops that follow a 2-day or 3- day format, covering SLOPE/W & SEEP/W + SIGMA/W (3-day), but as your ti me is valuable we are condensing the course and focusing just on Slope-W fo r this half-day course.
Class size will be limited to allow for hands -on assistance and problem solving.
