Our speaker, Jason Andrews from Engineering Analytics, will present a Pit Slope Stability Modeling and Monitoring Case Study, Southern California; monitoring and modeling of pit wall slope stability in conglomerate overburden (waste rock) material that overlies ore-bearing gneiss. Jason will discuss slope stability modeling using anisotropic material properties and slope monitoring systems to optimize mining operations and reduce the number and size of slope failures in the overburden material.
Jason Andrews has 17 years of geotechnical, design, and reclamation engineering experience and has served as the project manager/geotechnical engineer on more than 20 active mining and closure projects throughout the western and midwestern United States and South America. He graduated from Colorado State University with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering and a Master of Engineering degree with an emphasis in geotechnical engineering.5:00pm Networking6:00pm Dinner6:30pm SpeakerRegistration is required on the Eventbrite websitehttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/january-sme-colorado-section-meeting-tickets-241129704437
