Géotechnique Lecture

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Géotechnique lecture is an biennial lecture on the topic of soil mechanics, organised by the British Geotechnical Association named after its major scientific journal Géotechnique.

This should not be confused with the annual BGA Rankine Lecture.
