International Conference on Geotechnics Fundamentals and Applications in Construction: New Materials, Structures, Technologies and Calculations (GFAC 2019)

Description

On behalf of the organizing committee, we are pleased to announce that the International Conference on Geotechnics Fundamentals and Applications in Construction: New Materials, Structures, Technologies and Calculations (GFAC 2019will be held from February 6 to 8, 2019 in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

GFAC 2019 aims to provide an ideal interdisciplinary forum for leading universities, research institutes and design organizations from Russia, Japan, South Korea, India and other countries to present the latest research findings, ideas, developments, and applications in the sphere of geotechnics, modern geotechnologies, soil mechanics, foundations, geological engineering and share experience in design of complex geotechnical objects in various conditions.

GFAC 2019 seeks to enable the interactive exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge and bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and scholars in the domain of interest from around the world.

The key focus of the GFAC 2019 scientific program:

  • Analytical decisions and numerical modeling of the system joint operation: “base - foundation – building”;
  • Design and construction in geologically hazardous conditions (karst, landslides, mudflows, seismic activity, etc.);
  • Methods for surveying the features of dispersed, rocky soils, foundations and structurally unstable soils (permafrost, subsidence, peaty, swelling, etc.);
  • Exploration, territory improvement and reconstruction in conditions of compact urban planning and enterprises, etc.;
  • Construction, reconstruction and exploitation of railways, highways, pipes, utilities and other infrastructure facilities in different soil conditions;
  • R&D support and quality control of new materials, design and technology solutions in constructing bases, foundations, underground and surface constructions;
  • Condition survey and accident evolution analysis in construction;
  • Up-to-date monitoring techniques in building construction and exploitation.

GFAC 2019 organizers welcome original manuscript submissions written in English language that are closely related to the specified areas. The selected papers will be published in GFAC Proceedings:

1) GFAC 2019 Proceedings published online by CRC Press/ Balkema (peer reviewed and Scopus indexed; http://www.balkema.nl/);

2) Printed GFAC 2019 Proceedings published by Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (peer reviewed; indexed in Russian Science Citation Index).
