surface and the subsurface of the earth
and all processes that have been or are
still active to form the materials of the
earth.

provided the chance to gain
experience and expertise in
•Ground behaviour, and
•Interaction structure – ground
(However – many never used the expertise because they

Also today, I would advice every
engineering geologist and geotechnical
engineer to work for some time in a
mining environment to obtain a decent
knowledge on the behaviour of soil and
rock masses
Because it is the only place where
structures are built with a safety factor of
just 1, and which are also intended and
allowed to fail over a short time span

Conclusions Heinenoord:
• Project done already some 10 years ago,
hence not every conclusion from the
project holds for geotechnical modeling
today.
• However, some main conclusions from
that time still apply today

Conclusions Heinenoord still valid today:
1. Data conversion problem
2. Uncertainty or likelihood of the correctness of the
model cannot be established
3. Transfer from data from GIS to calculation
programs is cumbersome
4. Transfer of all data between typical geotechnical
(GIS) and typical civil engineering (CAD/CAM)
programs is poor or impossible

1 Data conversion:
Format of the data sources varies widely.
Conversion programs to convert one format into
another, but
Very difficult to check whether the conversion is
correct and complete
Experience author: often some of the original
information is not converted and this may go
unnoted without a careful check.

Conclusions Heinenoord:

Transfer of data
From GIS to calculation program (for example from

Difficult, sometimes simply impossible or only
possible with major simplifications in model
The same for the return; e.g. transfer of the results
to the GIS program

Practice in civil engineering
Step 1:
• Subsurface data from various sources
• Consulting engineering geologist or geotechnical
engineer makes subsurface model
• That model is (should be) fully documented on
data quality, reliability of model, all underlying
data are available, etc.
• The model is submitted to the client (mainly civil
engineers)

Practice in civil engineering
Step2:
• (Often) within the civil engineering environment,
somebody with or without much knowledge of
the subsurface simplifies the subsurface model
• Just a couple of sections or plans remain (for
example, foundation level plan)
• These are integrated with civil engineering
design data

Practice in civil engineering
This means that:
• All underlying information is forgotten
• The simplified section/plan becomes the “truth”
• There is no reliability indication of the
subsurface
• Nobody has any doubts about the
subsurface data until it goes wrong

How to solve
Reliability of models:
A general valid “reliability indicator” for
subsurface models is difficult (or may be
impossible) to establish
Alternative:
All underlying data used for making the
subsurface models should be available in
the civil engineering environment

Underlying sub surface data available in the
civil engineering models requires:
• Data harmonization and connectivity
• The “thinking” process how the model has
been made should in one or the other way
be available

What is inhomogeneity:
For example:
• an intact rock strength variation within a
block of intact rock material causes the
intact rock material to be inhomogeneous
• a variation in porosity in a clay causes a
clay layer to be inhomogeneous
• a variation in the orientation of
discontinuities (e.g. jointing) causes a rock
or soil mass to be inhomogeneous

Geotechnical unit:
A “geotechnical unit” is a unit in which
the geotechnical properties are the
same.

“No geotechnical unit is really
homogene….”
A certain amount of variation has to be
allowed as otherwise the number of
units will be unlimited

“The allowable variation of the
properties within one
geotechnical unit depends on:
1) the degree of variability of the
properties within a mass,
2) the influence of the differences on
engineering behavior, and
3) the context in which the geotechnical
unit is used.

Smaller allowed variability of
the properties in a geotechnical
unit results in:
• higher accuracy of geotechnical
calculations
• less risk that a calculation or design is
wrong

Smaller allowed variability of
the properties in a geotechnical
unit
• requires collecting more data and is thus
more costly
• geotechnical calculations are more
complicated and complex, and cost more
time

Hence:
• the variations allowed within a geotechnical unit for the
foundation of a highly sensitive engineering structure (for
example, a nuclear power station) is smaller

Visualization improves day-by-day:
• 3 and 4 dimensional GIS
• High-level of 3 and 4 dimensional visualization of the
subsurface
Is not (yet) perfect but rapidly improving in quality
Allows also non-experts to get a better idea on the
geodata of the subsurface
(and to understand why it is important)

• Developments of standards for exchange
and integration of geodata in civil
engineering (including subsurface models)
• Uncertainty quantification standards (may
be?)

Conclusion
Is it now so much better than in the past?
• May be not: the civil engineers still work
based on simplified subsurface data (albeit
this better than no data)
• Likely the reason for many smaller and
larger problems in projects
