1st International Symposium on CONSTRUCTION RESOURCES FOR ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES 2020
Important Dates
About CREST2020
The objectives of the sustainable systems in geotechnical engineering are to adopt reliable and resilient design and construction approaches using low-cost materials, which are economically and ecologically sustainable.The symposium aims at bringing together researchers, scientists and engineers to discuss about recent advances in sustainable materials and technologies used in Geotechnical Engineering and present their research work. And create awareness towards sustainable design and construction of engineered systems, through innovative use of both the resources and their by-products has seen an exponential rise in recent years.
Topics
Advancement in low cost and low carbon construction techniques, Recycled materials (alternative geomaterials) in geotechnical constructions, Mechanical and constitutive properties of recycled materials, Management and utilization of disaster wastes, Climate change related natural disasters, Physical and numerical modelling of disaster mitigation techniques, Information based (iot, ai etc.,) measures against natural disaster mitigation, Innovative techniques towards low carbon footprint, Innovative case studies for sustainable design and construction, Socio–economic and environmental aspects in sustainable construction, Geological and hydrological aspectsCall for Papers
The purpose of this symposium is to disseminate information and exchange ideas on issues related to natural and man-made disasters, and to arrive at solutions through the use of alternative resources, towards building a sustainable and resilient society from geotechnical perspectives. The symposium aims to bring together scientist, researchers, engineers and policy makers throughout the world under one umbrella for debate and discussion. The symposium will be focusing on sustainability, promotion of new ideas and innovations in design, construction and maintenance of geotechnical structures with aim of contributing towards climate change adaptation and disaster resiliency. It is hoped that through active participation of all the stake holders (industries, government and academia), the symposium will be able to inculcate some changes to the existing perception of dealing with problems, faced by the humankind in this ever challenging world. Authors are requested to submit an abstract of maximum 400 words in .docx and .pdf by April 15, 2020 online at https://crest2020.com/. Abstract should include the background, significance of study, basic methodologies implied, indication of findings of the study and conclusions. The extended abstract should be of either 2 or 4 pages, which will be published in symposium booklet. Full length paper of either 8 or 10 pages will be published in post symposium proceedings by Springer as a series publication. Selected papers will also be published in Environmental Geotechnics journal or geotechnical engineering journal of SEAGS. Young scientists and researchers will be rewarded for best papers. Atleast one of the authors or co-authors of papers will have to register after acceptance of extended abstract for their paper to be published
