Environmental infrastructure is sometimes invisible to the general public, but it underpins the economy and quality of life in the cities where most people live.  Our natural ecosystems provide many benefits for human health and well-being, such as filtering water, providing recreational opportunities, moderating temperatures, maintaining biodiversity, and reducing the impacts of storms. The built environment – including roadways, energy generation, utilities and industrial sites – provides the more visible services that are essential for our economy and society, such as shelter, powerin ..read more

Where there’s a will–and an adequate budget–there’s a way. However, regarding construction foundations, certain soils will require a lot more will, and a lot more budget, than others. How Are Soils Classified?  Various professions need to work with and understand soil, from environmental engineers and geoscientists to archaeologists to farmers. So, there are numerous ways to classify soil. Different classification systems focus on various aspects of soil, such as parent material, cohesiveness, or strength. One simple way to understand soil types is by starting with three groups, diff ..read more
