Proceedings of the 18
th
International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Paris 2013
•
Based on experience with TC208-Stability of natural
slopes, the TCs should consider holding, if appropriate, "public
meetings" at relevant well-attended international conferences
with delegates from different spheres of the geosciences to
discuss issues of common interest. Such an initiative nurtures
new ideas for the TC and favours a wider circle of influence for
the TC work.
•
The Liaison function to ISSMGE conferences run by
TCs established by TOC should not be continued.
•
The new numbering and categorisation of the TCs
according to content should be adopted throughout, and the old
TC numbers should not be used any more
•
The main recommendations made to the ISSMGE
Counci in August 2013, in succinct form, are presented in
Appendix C.
