Please find brief details below with an attachment of the "1st Call for
Papers" for the 5 th International Conference On Field Measurements In
Geomechanics, to be held in Singapore between 1 -3 December 1999.
This symposium is the fifth following a series of past symposia held in :
Zurich, Switzerland, 1983; Kobe, Japan, 1987; Oslo, Norway, 1991, and
Bergamo, Italy, 1995.
The objectives of this symposium are to review recent developments in the
techniques of field measurements in Geomechanics, and its role for
cost-effective analysis, design and construction in Geotechnical
Engineering. The symposium will provide a forum for presentation and
discussion by researchers, practitioners, manufacturers, suppliers and end
users of field instruments. This forum will provide an effective means for
dissemination of current state of the art in field measurements and data
interpretation for analysis of field performance of geotechnical
structures. It will also serve as a catalyst for further collaboration
between industry, universities and research institutions to direct R&D
efforts into developing better instrumentation and systems to provide cost
effective solution to field measurements, monitoring requirements and data
interpretation and analysis in geomechanics.
