What's new...
May 2008...Dr. Horvath had a feature article on using EPS-block geofoam in levee construction published in the American
Society of Civil Engineers' (ASCE's) monthly membership magazine "Civil Engineering". This is an edited and updated version of
the technical paper he had published in the proceedings of the ASCE GeoCongress 2008 conference held in March 2008 in New
Orleans, Louisiana. The original paper attracted such considerable interest in a short period of time that ASCE wanted to make it
available to a wider audience ("Civil Engineering" has more than 100,000 primary readers). Click here to access a full-color copy
of this magazine article that is suitable for on-line viewing as well as printing.

Earthquake Engineering and Soil Dynamics (GEESD IV) conference held in Sacramento, California. This conference was
sponsored by numerous professional and technical organizations and administered by the American Society of Civil Engineers
(ASCE). Copies of these papers can be downloaded from the Research section of this website.
