Site visits for civil and geotechnical engineering students
We regularly open our project sites to university students so they can see slope stabilisation and retaining wall construction in progress. On a recent visit to our Puncak Jalil project, students of civil and geotechnical engineering walked the site with our engineers, learned how soil nails and EC Geoblock facings are installed, and asked the questions that textbooks do not answer.
If you teach a civil engineering programme and would like to arrange a visit, please get in touch.
