The Geo-Institute Soil Improvement Committee (SIC) is pleased to announce a Call for Presentation Abstracts for the 10th Annual Live Streaming Web-Conference to be held 8 to 12 December 2025. During the web-conference week, ten technical sessions will be run for approximately 2 hours (Monday – Friday from 11 AM – 1 PM EST and 2 PM – 4 PM EST). Based on guidance from the G-I, the session is envisioned to comprise five presentations with 20 minutes per presentation, with 20 minutes allotted for panel Q&A. The SIC plans to submit a proposal for one session; this Call for Presentation Abstracts will allow the committee leadership to review and select presentations to provide the most compelling session that will attract our G-I member audience.
Previous web conference work and a survey of Geo-Institute members has demonstrated a continued interest in case histories related to the ground improvement field; this year we want to try and focus the case histories on transportation and infrastructure-related projects. Please consider preparing an abstract for a presentation on your work – there are bound to be ample infrastructure case histories on both proven and novel application of soil improvement technologies within our industry worthy of showcasing. Submissions should include the proposed title, an abstract of approximately 300 words describing the technical presentation, a separate speaker biography, speaker affiliation, and contact information. Authors of selected abstracts will be asked to prepare slides for the presentations. No technical accompanying paper is required.
Please send your abstract to Chris Woods at chris@densification.com by 13 June 2025.
