Abstract

We are privileged to be invited by Prof Pedro Pinto (Editor-in-Chief) and Prof Dimitrios Zekkos (Founder and Managing Director) to edit a special issue for the ISSMGE International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories (IJGCH).

The purpose of this special issue is to provide an overview of geotechnical challenges in Singapore through a range of representative projects involving piles, tunnelling, excavation and seawall construction. Project sites cover a wide range of geology such as residual soils derived from igneous rocks of granitic composition (Bukit Timah Granite), sedimentary rocks (Jurong Formation), semi-hardened quaternary alluvial deposits (Old Alluvium) and marine clays (Kallang Formation).
