This conference is the 5th of the PBD conference series established in 2009 by TC203, to focus on contributions to the engineering profession through novel design concepts and methodologies specific to problems encountered in seismic geotechnics. The PBD series is held about every 4 years in between the ICEGE, and previous conferences have been held in Tokyo (Japan, 2009), Taormina (Italy, 2012), Vancouver (Canada, 2017), and Beijing (China, 2022).

The PBD-V conference will focus on a wide range of topics, and is an excellent opportunity to contribute your work and network with geotechnical earthquake engineering professionals. There are 14 confirmed keynote speakers and 11 confirmed theme speakers from all over the world.
