“When things go wrong in geotechnical engineering — like ground movements and earthwork construction delays — failure investigations are often performed. In a typical geotechnical project, the path is relatively straightforward, and the final goal is known: desk research-site investigation-laboratory program-analysis-report-review of/preparation of drawings and specifications. But, performing investigations of geological/geotechnical failures (geofailures) is not like working on typical geotechnical projects.”
