Vancouver Geotechnical Society

The 31st Symposium of the Vancouver Geotechnical Society, focusing on the topic of “Shallow and Deep Foundations”, will take place on Friday June 06, 2025, at the Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront (1133 West Hastings Street in Vancouver). Details here.

Thank you for your continued support of the VGS, we have wrapped up our programming for the 2024-2025 programming year. We plan to start the 2025-2026 programming year in the fall and look forward to seeing you then. We will open the membership portal again at that time.
