Proceedings of the Geotechnical and Structural Engineering Congress 2016, held in Phoenix, Arizona, February 14-17, 2016. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute and the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE.

This collection contains 178 peer-reviewed papers on cutting-edge research and practical applications in both geotechnical and structural aspects of civil engineering.

Topics include: blast and impact loading; design of specialized structures and foundations; earth retaining structures, embankments, dams, and slopes; grouting; bridges, pavements, and transportation structures; extreme loads; soil structures interaction and site characterization; underground construction; performance-based design; seismic hazard analysis; risk assessment and infrastructure health monitoring; performance of constructed facilities; properties of geo-materials and modeling; and curricula, continuing education, and professional practice issues.

This proceedings will be valuable to practitioners and researchers in both geotechnical and structural engineering fields.
