The Importance of Geotechnical Engineering in Waterfront Design
Over the past decade, there's been an increased realization of the need to better protect our shorelines, particularly in urban environments along coastlines that have already been impacted by storm surge flooding (e.g., Tropical Storms Katarina (2005), Harvey (2011), Sandy (2012), and Michael [2018]). With an aging waterfront infrastructure, a poor flood resiliency track record, and an increasing concern from climate change, our urban shorelines need significant improvement.
