1. Introduction

The inherent variability and complexities of natural geomaterials require a comprehensive and complementary geotechnical site exploration program based on laboratory testing, geophysics, and in-situ test measurements. In a broad sense, Geo-Characterization group works towards these key-related research topics through integrated testing programs, advanced data analysis, and interpretation methods.
