With an increase of tailings dam failures involving liquefaction over the past two decades, the mining industry now faces a questionable future. An industry-led response involves the implementation of the NorSand model for engineers involved in tailings dams.

Joined by leading consulting engineer, Mike Jefferies, we will cover both the historical origins of the model, as well as the implementation of this important model going forward.

Users will learn about:

Liquefaction dam failures and pitfalls
Evolution of the critical state theory and the state parameter for the soil characterization
Origins of NorSand
Practical use of NorSand
