PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF ENGINEERING GEOLOGY
2017 AUGUST R BE SEPTEM
Y TWO DAE COUCUKLRANSD,
TWO DAY COURSE IN
PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF ENGINEERING GEOLOGY A TON, WELLING HURCH CHRISTC
PRESENTERS: FRED BAYNES, STUART READ, ANN WILLIAMS
AUCKLAND
DAY 1 8.00am – 5pm THURSDAY 31 AUGUST 2017
The Auditorium, Ground floor, Beca House, 21 Pitt Street, Auckland
DAY 2 8.30am – 6pm* FRIDAY 1 SEPTEMBER 2017
Field exercises (Leigh – Pakiri: including recognition and mapping of geomorphic and landslide features, logging of coastal cliff exposures, coastal erosion features etc.)
OBJECTIVES This course will provide an overview of the basic principles underpinning the practical application of engineering geology. Attendees will gain increased knowledge of the geoscientific methodologies and practices required for successful interpretation of ground conditions and a greater understanding of “how to get the geology right”. Skills developed and Outcomes The course will provide a mix of classroom teaching with exercises (Day 1) and opportunity to practice observational skills in the field (Day 2). This combination is intended to enhance how an engineering geologist recognises and documents geological and geotechnical information. Benefits are in the provision and communication of engineering geological contributions to the investigation, design and construction phases of ground engineering projects. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? The course is intended for engineering geologists with two to six years’ experience, in particular those preparing for the proposed new Chartered Membership status of IPENZ for Engineering Geologists – CMIPENZ(PEngGeol). Geotechnical Engineers will also find the course useful to enhance their knowledge and understanding of engineering geology methodologies and practical application.

PRESENTERS 1. Fred Baynes: Fred was educated in the UK before immigrating to Australia in 1980 and is now an independent consultant engineering geologist working on major projects in the civil, mining and oil and gas sectors throughout the world. 2. Stuart Read: Stuart, since graduation with a degree in engineering geology, has 45 years’ experience with GNS Science in consultancy and research for investigation, construction and refurbishment of engineering and mining projects. 3. Ann Williams: Ann has almost 30 years’ experience in engineering geological and hydrogeological investigations and analysis. She has focussed on the interaction of soils, structures and groundwater as part of engineering design.
