ABOUT NUGS
The NSW Underground Geotechnical Society (NUGS) was formed in July 2014 to satisfy the demand of an interest group specifically involved in underground coal mine geotechnical engineering. NUGS is a non-profit organisation that has adopted the AusIMM Code of Ethics, with the aim of providing a forum for:
-
Dissemination of knowledge in relation to rock characterisation, support & mine design, strata management and reconciliation
-
Sharing and discussing specific industry problems
-
Identifying, promoting and reviewing research and development
-
Providing a link between students, educators, geotechnical practitioners and strata support suppliers.
MEMBERSHIP
Currently NUGS membership is based on meeting attendance and is currently free of charge.
