Your Expertise Matters! We’d love your Help + Join Hands-On Geotechnical Events.

Your expertise and insights are invaluable to us! We’d love your help with a questionnaire on fine grain material particle size distributions and have two exciting geotechnical events that could be valuable for you.

Questionnaire on Fine Grained Material (Silt and Clay) Particle Size Distributions:

Are you working in the CMT space or are you a geotechnical or geology specialist?

Your feedback will play a vital role in developing an improved testing method for the Particle Size Distributions (PSD’s) of fine grained materials (silt and clays). The survey covers various aspects, including particle size distribution analysis, the use of hydrometer testing, challenges faced, and the potential benefits of mineralogy composition analysis.

To participate in the questionnaire, please take a few moments to click on the following link: https://forms.office.com/r/0s1mvkT7Nv or scan the QR Code.

We assure you that your responses will remain anonymous and confidential.

The Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD) was first used in 1998 by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) at the Minnesota Road Research Project. Starting in 2005 the LWD has been used by Mn/DOT as an acceptance tool for the compaction of roadbed and miscellaneous embankment and trench construction, culvert treatments and other tapered construction.
