Australian Antarctic Division
A team of three cold climate geotechnical specialists are about to commence winter investigations near Australia’s Davis research station in East Antarctica, to gather data on soil, rock and ice in the area proposed for a new aerodrome.
This information will assist in informing the geotechnical and engineering design, delivery and construction methodology of the Davis Aerodrome Project (DAP), subject to approval.
