Summer Excursion Ingeokring: Excursion Pillar Stability in Southern Limburg
As communicated before, the Ingeokring excursion for July 1st 2017 has found it’s final form. This day (1 day instead of 2 day-excursions in the previous years) willl consist of 2 underground guided tours and a few surface outcrop visits. In these visits the historic mining of the Limburg area and specifically the rock mechanics in the underground mines will be the central theme. The combination of underground tours and the surface outcrops near Maastricht will make this a very interesting day.

Report on the Autumn Symposium of the Ingeokring 2016: Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering
Culture Centre Delft University of Technology, 18 November 2016
The symposium was very well attended. More people than the attendance limit, which was set at 100, were present. Apart from a considerable number of members of the Ingeokring, a large part of the audience existed of scientists and engineers that came especially for the subject matter.
