UPDATE: 11TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM OF GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION IN SOFT GROUND (IS-MACAU 2024)

Description

The 11th International Symposium of Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground (IS-Macau 2024) will be held in Macao SAR, China on June 14-17, 2024. It is organized by the State Key Laboratory of IoT for Smart City (IoTSC) and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Macau, Civil Engineering Laboratory of Macua (LECM) and TC204 of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE).

TC204 of the lSSMGE was first established in 1989 as TC28 and has made major commitments towards collecting information concerning the geotechnical aspects of the design, construction and analysis of deep excavations, tunnels and large underground structures in the urban environment. The first symposium was held in New Delhi n 1994 and nine more symposia were held in London (1996), Tokyo (1999), Toulouse (2002), Amsterdam (2005), Shanghai (2008), Rome (2011), Seoul (2014), Sao Paulo (2017) and Cambridge (2022)

The theme of IS-Macau 2024 is "Tunnelling and Underground Construction for Smart Cities"This highly successful series of TC204 symposium provides a premier forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss new problems, solutions, and technologies in underground construction and related areas. 

The conference proceedings will be published by Taylor & Francis, and will be sent to multiple indexing services, including Elsevier (Scopus, Compendex and EI) and Clarivate Analytics. Selected conference papers will be invited for submission to special issue in Underground Space and Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology.

The full paper submission is now open online. Interested participants may check the symposium website for full paper submission and updates.
