Maccaferri is one of the world’s biggest geosynthetics companies. In this 11 ICG Preview, we look at the technical expertise the company will share with the global engineering community during the 11th International Conference on Geosynthetics (16 – 21 September 2018) in Seoul.
Maccaferri also invites attendees to visit its team at Booths 63 & 64 in the 11 ICG exhibit hall.
11 ICG PREVIEW – MACCAFERRI TECHNICAL SESSION CONTRIBUTIONS
The conference theme is “Geosynthetics: Innovative Solutions for Sustainable Development.” Maccaferri’s team has contributed a wide range of topics to support this theme and expand upon it.
Key topics from these authors include retaining walls and soil reinforcement, basal reinforcement, drainage and erosion control.
