23 Mar '25

Registration is open until Friday, March 28, for the 2025 Purdue Geotechnical Society event: PGS Workshop “Engineering the Ground: from Fundamentals to Applications” and the 21st G.A. Leonards Lecture by Prof. Giulia MB Viggiani, April 11, 2025 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 2025 Purdue Geotechnical Society Workshop and the 21st G.A. Leonards Lecture, an in-person event, will take place on Friday, April 11th, on the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University. The theme for the workshop is “Engineering the Ground: from fundamentals to applications”. It aligns with the subject of the Leonards Lecture, “Engineering Frozen Ground: understanding the behavior of soil on freezing and thawing”, which will be given by Professor Giulia MB Viggiani of Cambridge University. She has been recognized as a leader in geotechnical engineering research, education and practice, and we are thrilled that Professor Viggiani has accepted our invitation to give the Leonards Lecture. The workshop will consist of a full day of technical presentations and discussions including Keynote Lectures by Prof. Chadi El Mohtar of UT Austin and Raymond Franz of Keller North America. The technical program will culminate with the Leonards Lecture and will be followed by a reception and dinner. Attached are the detailed programs for the Workshop and Leonards Lecture, and registration information. Online registration will be open until March 28. We are working on putting together a great program for the 21st edition of our geotechnical Spring event and hope you will be able to participate. Philippe Dr. Philippe L. Bourdeau, Life M. ASCE, M.

Right-To-Know training
by Govindaraju, Rao S 20 Mar '25

20 Mar '25

All, For our department to be compliant with all safety regulations, it is required by EPA and OSHA that the online Right-To-Know training be completed by all who are in paid status or seeking lab access. Similar to FERPA, the RTK training must be completed annually. You may find the training in the link here<https://engineering.purdue.edu/Intranet/Groups/Schools/CE/Safety/RTK> or on the CCE Intranet in the safety section. The training is not complete until the associated quiz is taken and completed with a 100% score at which time you will receive notice of completion. You will be reminded every year in Brightspace to take the training. For those who have never taken the training or whose training has expired, you have until March 31, 2025, to complete the training. We come up for recertification in April. If you fail to complete the training by the deadline, then your PUID access may be revoked and you would be asked to surrender your building keys until you complete the training. If you are uncertain if you have completed the training, please email Dave Rater at dmrater(a)purdue.edu<mailto:dmrater@purdue.edu> and ask him to confirm. Best. GS
