A Conceptual Framework of Financial Risks Activated by Geo-Environmental Factors in Transportation Infrastructure Projects
Abstract: Geo-environmental factors wield substantial influence in both the design and construction of transportation infrastructure.Managing the financial risk associated with geo-environmental factors is key to the successful implementation of transportation infrastructure projects. Ground Investigations are the primary avenue to minimize financial risk due to geo-environmental factors. Limiting ground investigations to desk studies and preliminary reconnaissance based on superficial site inspection, or carrying out reactive post-contract ground investigations, however, appears to be …
