The 16th ICSMGE responds to the needs of the engineering and construction community, promoting dialog and exchange between academia and practice in various aspects of soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. This is reflected in the central theme of the conference 'Geotechnology in Harmony with the Global Environment'. The proceedings of the conference are of great interest for geo-engineers and researchers and reflect the present state-of-the-art of soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering.
Volume 1 contains 5 plenary session lectures, Terzaghi oration, heritage lecture, 3 papers presented in the major project session and a CD.
Volumes 2, 3, and 4 contain the papers with the following topics:
Soil mechanics in general
Infrastructure and mobility
Environmental issues of geotechnical engineering
Enhancing natural disaster reduction systems
Professional practice and education
Volume 5 contains the report of practitioner/academic forum, 20 general reports, summary of the sessions, workshops held during the conference and a CD.
