Lime cement stabilization of a sensitive clay deposit at E-6 Klet

The excursion covers sites near Trondheim that are selected to be most relevant for the theme of the workshop. This includes recent and old landslide areas (Byneset and Tiller); the Norwegian GeoTest Site for quick clays; an ongoing quick clay project with largest stabilization work carried out in Norway (Klett project); quick clay zones in Trondheim (Nidarvoll, Duedalen/Bakklandet). A short report about these sites will be prepared and this will be available for the trip. Clothes and footwear for rainy weather conditions are recommended. This excursion will be a great opportunity to learn more on some aspects of quick clay out in the field and will provide an opportunity for more interaction with participants of the workshop.

More information on the excursion will be posted here later.
