Education @ Your Desk. A Live Webinar Class means that you will attend the class via the web using your computer. There are scheduled breaks for coffee and lunch. You use a microphone, headset, or your phone and are able to interact with the instructor and other students while following notes while watching the presentation slides online just as you would in a live classroom. Notes are posted online. For an extra cost a hard copy can be requested.
The virtual classroom is becoming more and more popular, and we have a lot of experience teaching in this format. The only real difference between a live in-class and live via webinar is where you sit and what you look at. You can learn from the comfort of your own home or office. You pay less for the live webinar format than you would for the in-class format, and you do not have to travel to another city to attend the class. Please contact us at [email protected] for Special Group & Corporate Rates for one or more participants.

Description
Helical foundation systems offer a versatile replacement of conventional deep foundations solutions. The most important differences between the helical foundations and the conventional foundation types are mainly in method of construction. Helical piles need much less construction time and could be used or loaded immediately. Helical piles could be used where conventional deep foundation cannot. Underpinning is the best example of these unique differences.
The fundamental mechanisms by which helical piles develop resistance to load are described in a manner consistent with basic principles of soil mechanics. Along with the thorough description of installation methods and equipment that is provided, the concepts used for design and quality control/quality assurance follow logically. The section on corrosion and life expectancy is particularly important now as applications of helical piles expand into greater use with permanent structures with longer intended service periods. Applications for helical piles are described which may prove novel to many engineers and open opportunities for innovation and development of more cost-effective solutions.
Target Audience
This 1hr introductory webinar will be suitable for Structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, technicians, and technologists. Civil engineers, public works and construction department employees of federal, provincial and municipal governments and engineers responsible for large industrial, commercial or institutional facilities who must deal with different types of foundations.
This webinar will be of interest to a wide range of practicing civil engineers at different stages in their careers. Some familiarization with soil mechanics is desirable but the knowledge is not required at a specialist level.
