When Geotech Meets Reality: Project from Hell Award

Northwest Geotechnical Workshop 2025 Project from Hell Award Recipients

We all know that geotechnical work is rarely tidy. So when I saw this post on LinkedIn it made me laugh and instantly think of all the times in the field, office, or lab when we find ourselves wrestling chaos into something vaguely resembling order. Ian and Flynn were awarded the “Project from Hell” award at the Northwest Geotechnical Workshop late last year. The humor is real, and the sentiment is spot on for anyone who has ever had a geotechnical field program go something less than according to plan! My favorite part about Ian’s post, the text for the award for “wrestling chaos into something vaguely resembling order…” LOL!
