Webinar: Advances in Geologic Data Collection and 3D Geologic Modeling for Site Characterization and Safety Studies


This event qualifies for 2 PDHs


This course will address a variety of geologic issues in dam and levee design and safety engineering, with emphasis on the application of 3D geologic modeling and other technologies to enhance communication between the project geoscientists and the project engineers, regulators and other stakeholders.

Speaker and Presenter Information

 

Robert P. Cannon, PG, LG
Principal/Sr. Vice President
Schnabel Engineering

 

Robert Cannon is a registered Professional Geologist and a Principal with Schnabel Engineering. Robert brings more than 40 years of experience nationally and internationally in geologic site characterization, geologic hazard assessments, and forensic and remedial investigations for major dams, tunnels and other critical infrastructure projects. Robert currently serves on the Board of Directors for USSD and has also served on the expert Board of Consultants for several high-profile projects, including for the Mosul Dam in Iraq which suffers from rapid and continuous foundation dissolution due to gypsum and carbonate geology.

 

Gary D. Rogers, PG, LG
Senior Associate 
Schnabel Engineering

 

Gary Rogers is a registered Professional Geologist and a Senior Associate Scientist at Schnabel Engineering. Gary has over 30 years of technical and managerial experience in engineering geology, hydrogeology, glaciology, and site characterization. He has led site exploration and characterization programs for numerous new and existing earthen and concrete dams throughout the continental US and Alaska, and continued his involvement on many of these projects through design and construction. Much of his focus is on effectively communicating geologic and subsurface conditions to design engineers and owners.

 

Frederic Snider, PG, LG
Associate
