The proposed research program is focussed on risk management of geohazards affecting infrastructure. This includes, in Canada, 40,000 km of railway tracks, current and proposed tunnels in Ontario and BC, and mining infrastructure in Ontario. The objective of this research is to pro-actively assess the risks associated with these geohazards so as to optimize site investigation, further define best practices for material property characterisation and continue to lead development of state of the art engineering analysis of the stability and design of these structures. In addition, the risk based approach will help to optimize expenditures on stability improvement / risk reduction measures. The outcomes of the research will positively affect risk management, enhancing public and worker safety, maximizing infrastructure operation and reducing expenses when geohazards do affect the infrastructure.

拟议的研究计划的重点是影响基础设施的地质灾害的风险管理。这包括在加拿大，40，000公里的铁路轨道，在安大略和不列颠哥伦比亚省的现有和拟议的隧道，以及在安大略的采矿基础设施。本研究的目的是积极主动地评估与这些地质灾害相关的风险，以优化现场调查，进一步确定材料特性表征的最佳实践，并继续领导这些结构的稳定性和设计的最先进工程分析的发展。此外，基于风险的方法将有助于优化改善稳定/减少风险措施的支出。研究结果将对风险管理产生积极影响，加强公众和工人的安全，最大限度地提高基础设施的运营，并在地质灾害确实影响基础设施时减少费用。
