Funded Activity Summary

National Forum and Collaboration on the Investigation and Remediation of Problem Soils through Effective Ground Improvement Practices. The aim of this initiative is to develop a strategy for a high-quality research network on the Australian problematic soils and the appropriate remediation alternatives, including: lime treatment, use of geosynthetics, native vegetation and drainage. Another aim of this initiative is to bring together researchers and practitioners from all over Australia under a common forum in a workshop, to promote exchange of new ideas, disseminate research findings and innovative technologies, as well as to make an impact on practical issues facing the technologists today. An informative website will be created as a result of this initiative. A web-enabled report will also be produced to include peer-reviewed papers and relevant forum discussions.
