Rigid Inclusions in Ground Improvement: Performance Insights
Join us for a presentation by Itasca Consulting Principal Engineer Augusto Lucarelli on the performance-based design of rigid inclusion ground improvement systems using FLAC3D. Learn why traditional factor-of-safety methods fall short, how strain compatibility and soil–structure interaction shape outcomes, and why addressing lateral and seismic performance early in design is essential.
Overview
- Gain insights from Itasca experts and mining leaders on cutting-edge geomechanical modeling and its impact on today’s mining operations.
- See how advanced numerical simulation tools are being used to solve complex challenges in underground and open-pit mining.
- Explore real-world case studies where Itasca software has improved safety, optimized extraction, and reduced operational risks.
- Learn how integrated workflows and data-driven modeling are transforming mine planning, design, and monitoring.
- Join a thought-provoking panel on the future of mining, from automation and AI to sustainable resource management.
- Connect with fellow geotechnical professionals and researchers over breakfast, lunch, and closing networking drinks.
