TexASCE Webinar: The Hidden Side of Erosion Protection- How Engineers Are Rethinking Long-Term Performance
June 16 @ 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CDT
The Hidden Side of Erosion Protection
How Engineers Are Rethinking Long-Term Performance
Erosion protection failures often begin where engineers can’t see them — beneath the surface. As storm intensity, aging infrastructure, and owner expectations continue to evolve, engineers are rethinking how channels, embankments, spillways, and stormwater systems perform over the long term.
This webinar explores the hidden factors that influence erosion protection performance, including infiltration, constructability, inspection, and long-term resilience. Using real-world case histories, attendees will gain practical insights into how engineers are evaluating erosion protection beyond surface armoring alone.
