GEOMAX hosts educational seminar: focuses on the benefits of soil stabilization
Experts from Iowa State University’s Earthworks Engineering Research Center (EERC) on hand to demonstrate
GEOMAX Soil Stabilization teams with Iowa State University’s Earthworks Engineering Research Center (EERC) and Terracon Consultants to offer a high-level educational experience about the speed, cost savings and performance of today’s most advanced soil stabilization processes. On April 13th at the Coralville Marriott Hotel and Conference Center, Soil Stabilization 101: Solid Facts On Fly Ash, experts will explain the process and review the benefits of this technique.

“Soil stabilization is a process that has been around for more than 20 years,” said Jeff Maxwell, president of GEOMAX. “The benefits can be immense on construction projects; we felt it was important to provide information about the process and how it can increase the life of our paving surfaces and lower construction costs.”
The seminar is offered at no cost to attendees and will feature more than six learning sessions, including presentations by experts from Terracon Consultants, Alliant Energy, EERC and more. It will offer a live soil stabilization demonstration, and participants have the opportunity to walk through ISU’s Mobile Earthworks Lab to learn more about earth mechanics and geo-construction technology.
Safe, dependable, and sustainable physical infrastructure systems are vital to maintaining America’s economic vitality, according to the EERC.
“Smart infrastructure solutions start at the bottom, with the foundations that support and significantly determine the performance of every paving surface. Investing in soil engineering and smart technology improvements that result in faster, stronger, and longer-lasting pavements,” said Maxwell.
Participants that qualify can earn general engineering Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for attending. For a complete listing of speakers, visit www.geomaxsoil.com.
