We are looking forward to catching up in person in November so here are three opportunities to do just that! Insitutek will be exhibiting at all these knowledge sharing events so we look forward to seeing you there.
Piling & Ground Improvement Conference 2022 – 16 – 18 Nov 2022 (Sydney)
The conference, co hosted by the Piling and Foundation Specialists Federation (PFSF) and Deep Foundations Institute (DFI), will cover all aspects of deep foundations, retention and ground improvement works.
Sessions in the program will cover design, testing, construction, ground improvement, risk and project delivery practices, challenging project case studies, and developments and innovations.
Ground supported working platforms are critical for heavy equipment stability, and modern piling equipment is becoming heavier with higher centres of gravity to cater for the ever increasing market for deeper foundations.
“One third of accidents in the piling industry result from defects in the working platform.” – Terry Bolsher Chairman of the UK Federation of Piling Specialists
The experience in Australia is not dissimilar to the UK. Our insitu testing and clay soil stabilisation methods help reduce these risks. Come and see us at Booth 135.

National Workshop on Transportation Geomechanics and Ground Improvement – 24 Nov 2022 – Sydney
The workshop is hosted by the Transport Research Centre (TRC), University of Technology Sydney and co-hosted by the Australian Geomechanics Society, and the technical committees TC202: Transportation Geotechnics and TC211: Ground Improvement of ISSMGE.
The presentations will focus on innovative R&D outcomes, practices, technological applications and case studies to allow the audience to learn about new tools and techniques relevant to their work.
A broad range of topics in the program will be presented covering emerging themes and advances in the areas of Transport Geotechnics and Ground Improvement, including:
- Challenges and Innovations in Earthworks Controls for Transport Infrastructure
- Soft Ground Improvement
- Tunnelling in Soft Ground
- Waste Materials in Road and Rail Substructure
- Port Reclamation
- AI and Machine Learning Applications
- Use of Geosynthetics
- Soft Soil Instability and Mud Pumping under Cyclic Loads
- Environmental Impact Assessment, among others
