    GeoAmericas 2016, the 3rd Pan-American Conference on Geosynthetics, will be held at the Lowes Hotel on South Beach in Miami, Florida. The 3rd Pan-American conference will continue the GeoAmericas tradition of excellence, providing a forum for engineers, practitioners and academe from the Americas to explore current and future potential applications for geosynthetics. It also offers an active marketplace for the promotion of geosynthetic products and technologies to users throughout the Americas.

    GeoAmericas 2016 is developing a program to advance the knowledge and understanding of geosynthetics at every level, from novice to expert. All will be provided with an opportunity to gain and share knowledge. Considering the diverse range of interests and applications, the conference has chosen not to isolate a theme; rather, the event will facilitate learning and dialogue on the key issues faced by geosynthetic communities throughout the Pan-American region. We welcome transportation, mining, infrastructure, waste, water, and other relevant discussions with a focus on improving the quality and durability of our works through the application of geosynthetics.

    To address the critical issues facing our industry from all perspectives, GeoAmericas 2016 will continue the tradition of making its calls in a somewhat unique format. This first call is made for proposals for technical sessions, short courses & training lectures. A call for Abstracts and Student Papers will be issued in early January 2015.
