This book presents the proceedings of the 21st European Young GeotechnicalEngineers Conference, held in the Netherlands in September 2011. Six sectionscover the topics of underground construction, pile foundation and ground improvement, soil dynamics, dams, erosion and piping, deformation and soil properties, andgeothermics. The papers present a new and refreshing perspective of young engineers exploring the field of geotechnics, aiming to contribute to sustainable living and to the creation of safe, economic and pleasant spaces to live, work and relax
