National geotechnica conference of the Netherlands, covering a broad range of topics related to geotechnical engineering in the Netherlands. Papers and abstracts submitted in Dutch and English language

International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering

As global land development expands into coastal regions, offshore reclamation areas, and wetlands, the geotechnical challenges posed by soft soils are becoming more critical. These soils, including highly sensitive clays, marine silty clays, organic soils, peats, loose sands, and dredged soils, are known for their high compressibility, water content, and complex mechanical properties, making construction projects in such areas problematic. To address these challenges, soft soil engineering is evolving with innovative technologies and approaches. This conference, organised under the auspices of the ISSMGE Technical Committee 214 on "Foundation Engineering for Difficult Soft Soil Conditions", will showcase the latest developments in testing, modelling, monitoring and construction and improvement techniques for soft soils. It will provide a platform for researchers, engineers, and industry professionals to exchange expertise and discuss how these innovations can be applied to address modern construction challenges in soft soil environments.
