1. Although rock can’t speak, it left some clues to us. With careful observation like a detective, we can use rock relative age to determine whether a rock layer in a sequence is older or younger than other layers. This workshop will introduce different methods to determine the rock relative age. Audience can also try to pack up the rock and soil layers of a model according to its formation sequences.
2. Experience how the landslides from natural hillside are intercepted with a rigid barrier through Smart Sandbox.
