Geotechnical Considerations when Using Thermal Conduction Heating under Buildings and Sensitive Infrastructure

Join us for a webinar exploring geotechnical factors to consider when implementing thermal conduction heating (TCH) beneath buildings, roadways and other sensitive infrastructure. Learn how to minimize potential risks and ensure safe and effective remediation through careful planning and monitoring.

In this session, Steffen Griepke, VP of Technology at TerraTherm will cover:

• Understanding geotechnical risks: Discover the potential for subsidence and other geotechnical effects associated with TCH, and how these can vary based on soil type, site history, and saturation conditions.
• Conducting thorough site assessments: Learn about essential geotechnical investigations and testing to identify potential risks and inform treatment design.
• Selecting appropriate heating approach: Explore how different well placement approaches can impact geotechnical properties and how to choose the most suitable option for your site.
• Implementing robust monitoring systems: Discover the importance of monitoring to track soil movements, identify potential issues, and adjust treatment strategies as needed based on observations.
• Case studies and lessons learned: Gain insights from real-world examples of TCH projects, including successful mitigation strategies and valuable lessons learned. Case studies will both cover examples with and without geotechnical impacts, and the cause will be discussed.

Whether you are a project manager, project engineer, environmental scientist, or regulatory professional involved in site remediation, this webinar will provide valuable insights into the practical considerations for safely implementing TCH beneath buildings and sensitive infrastructure.
