The Industrial Fabrics Association International is pleased to announce the Geosynthetics 2015 conference will be held Sunday, Feb. 15 - Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2015 in Portland, Ore. at the Oregon Convention Center and will be co-located with the International Erosion Control Association's (IECA) annual Environmental Connection show.
This biennial geosynthetics conference is a must-attend event for the geotechnical, civil and geo-environmental communities. The conference is complete with full educational components-featuring informative technical sessions and thought-provoking keynote speakers, as well as a robust show floor showcasing the newest developments in geotechnical engineering technologies. Industry experts from across the globe gather to network, attend the educational sessions, participate in short courses and walk the packed conference floor.
The International Erosion Control Association is the world's oldest and largest association devoted to helping members solve the problems caused by erosion and its byproduct-sediment.
The previous event, Geosynthetics 2013 was organized by the Industrial Fabrics Association International (IFAI) and the Geosynthetic Materials Association (GMA), an IFAI special interest group. The 2013 event was supported by the North American Geosynthetics Society (NAGS) and conducted under the auspices of the International Geosynthetics Society (IGS).
