The “International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories” covers the broad area of
practice in geotechnical engineering (soils and rocks), geotechnical earthquake
engineering, environmental geotechnics and engineering geology. Papers on well-
documented case histories with emphasis on observations and data collected during
and after project construction are invited. The journal aims to become an efficient mean
of publishing and distributing high quality data from construction and research projects
by taking advantage of the opportunities provided by the internet. Emphasis is given in
the methods used to collect the data, and the project’s design and construction details.

The intention is not only to establish the first refereed journal devoted on case histories.
The "International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories" is also a database of high-
quality geotechnical information. Published Information will be classified and become
easily accessible.

We aim to provide the engineer of practice and the researcher a very useful, high quality
but free tool to their work. Click the "What is different about this journal" icon to the left
to read about the distinct characteristics of this journal.

An Editorial Board  of some very distinguished engineers in the world participate in the
effort to guarantee the quality of the journal. Click on the "Why submit a paper to us" to

GEOGRAPHIC DATABASE OF PUBLISHED CASE HISTORIES
All papers published in the International
Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories
are, also geographically positioned in a
Google Earth base map. Thus, users are
able to identify published case histories in
specific geographic regions.

Visit the International Journal of
Geoengineering Case Histories geographic
database
(Google Earth required, get it for
free
)
Once the database is launched, all papers should be listed in the "My places" window.
Click on them to be directed to each of the papers. Right click and "Properties" to see a
