The paper offers a history of collaboration between the Geotechnical societies of the USA (Geo-Institute) and Russia (RSSMGFE), which started in Oakland (USA) in 2012. The author reviews the results of the Russian-American symposium (2018) devoted to the enhancement of the geotechnical regulatory documents in effect in both countries. The paper provides information about studies conducted by the working groups composed of geotechnical experts of both countries.
