Aug 29, 2024 · We describe the diversity of geohazard classification and discuss how geohazards should be best viewed in the context of risk (the potential for undesirable consequences). Attention is drawn to the way in which geohazards are addressed in current guidance, notably IAEG C25 and Eurocode 7.
