We are pleased to invite you to the 10th edition of the International Course on Geotechnical and Structural Monitoring (ICGSM) that will be held in Golden (CO) – United States from 11 to 14 June 2024.
Launched in 2014 by NHAZCA, ICGSM is one of the most important international events for the geotechnical and structural monitoring community, representing a unique networking and training opportunity for professionals, academia, and industry. The previous editions were attended by 900+ participants and 70+ sponsors from over 60 countries.
In 2024, the course will celebrate its 10th Anniversary edition with a special event in the country where John Dunnicliff and Prof. Paolo Mazzanti first planned the ICGSM model.
The course is dedicated to engineers, geologists, technicians, and managers in charge of construction projects and asset management in a wide range of applications, such as transportation (e.g., railways, bridges, tunnels, roads, airstrips), natural resources exploitation (e.g., dams, mines, pipelines, wind turbines, geothermal fields, oil and gas extraction), and natural hazards (e.g., landslides).
This new edition of ICGSM is planned to offer the participants a broad overview of the most interesting geotechnical and structural monitoring topics through a rich training program. The course is structured over three days of masterclasses, starting from the basics to enable a full understanding of the following course topics. Lessons will be dedicated to:
- Monitoring static and dynamic deformations with contact and remote sensing monitoring systems;
- Monitoring groundwater and surface water;
- Data, from transmission to interpretation;
- Data analysis of new trends, including monitoring through innovative platforms and technologies;
- Monitoring applications, including landslides, linear infrastructures, natural resources, and natural hazards.
The event is enriched by a field trip organized on 14th June 2024 and by the ICGSM EXPO 2024, organized in parallel with the main course. During the EXPO, participants will have the opportunity to interact with the event’s sponsors, widening their business networks and updating themselves with the newest technologies on the market.
A 10% discount on the participation fee will be dedicated to AGHP members.
