Geo-Congress 2023 sneak preview: Marty Hudson - Geotechnical Challenges of the Wilshire Grand

Geo-Congress is the annual meeting of the Geo-Institute - sort of a geotechnical family reunion. Every year in February or March, our community gathers for amazing keynotes, great technical talks, the biggest geotechnical exhibit hall in North America, and a lot of fun! To prepare for the 2023 conference in Los Angeles, we bring you a series of live streams featuring case histories from Southern California!

Our first in the series will be presented Thursday, November 17, at 2pm ET. Marty Hudson of Turner will present "Wilshire Grand - Geotechnical Challenges of the Tallest Building on the West Coast."

Martin (Marty) Hudson is the Director of Geotechnical Engineering for the Turner Engineering Group of Turner Construction Company. He also teaches courses on foundation engineering at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science. He has over 29 years of industry experience covering a variety of building types, sizes and market sectors. Dr. Hudson is a Licensed Civil and Geotechnical Engineer. He obtained his B.S. and M.S. degrees from the University of California, Los Angeles and Ph.D. in civil engineering from the University of California, Davis.

Thank you for the presentation. Very concise and to-the-point. As a railway engineer, I was impressed by the meticulous impact assessment of the construction to the operation of the metro!
