-----Original Message----- From: Unsaturated Soils Email List [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Sandra Houston Sent: 14 March 2005 16:15 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: UNSAT2006 - Phoenix, Arizona, USA Importance: High The 4th International Conference on Unsaturated Soils is to be held in Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.A., April 2 - 5, 2006, at the Carefree Inn and Resort, Carefree, Arizona (Phoenix, Skyharbor Airport). Abstract submissions for the conference are due May 13, 2005. The conference is planned to promote the exchange of knowledge in the areas of mechanics of unsaturated soils, residual soils, geoenvironmental applications, and alternative cover systems. Topic areas will include seepage (air and fluid flow), shear strength, volume change, and geoenvironmental engineering. Applications to highways and airports, earth dams, natural slopes, cover systems, shallow and deep foundations, contaminant transport and remediation, retaining walls, radioactive waste disposal, and forensic engineering are invited. Laboratory and in-situ measurement of unsaturated soils properties and soils suction will also be included. Additional information on this GI Specialty Conference and instructions for abstract submission can be found at http://www.asce.org/conferences/unsat06/.
