International Symposium on
Advances in Foundation
Engineering (ISAFE2013)
December 5-6, 2013
Furama RiverFront Hotel
Singapore
This international symposium will
gather designers, consultants, con-
tractors, regulators, researchers,
and other stakeholders together in a
single forum to address all aspects
of foundation engineering, including
present state of art/practice and chal-
lenging issues facing the foundation
engineering profession. The basic
goal is to share information on how
to do the job most effectively with the
lowest risk and impact on the environ-
ment. Contributions on all aspects of
foundation engineering that advance
the state of art/practice case histories,
particularly innovations in practice
and technology, are most welcomed.
This symposium is held in conjunc-
tion with the Sixth Annual General
Meeting of the Geotechnical Society
of Singapore.
