Deep Foundation Technologies for Infrastructure Development in India 2017
Event Overview
India is witnessing one of the fastest growing economies in the
world, and the government of India is working towards a double
digit growth rate. Infrastructure development will be the prime
activity for growth over the next few decades, and foundation
technologies will contribute immensely to the acceleration of
construction. It is therefore, imperative for all stakeholders in
the foundation industry to meet as often as possible to review
these technologies and devise ways and means for their
implementation in projects for the benefit of all. The DFI-India
2017: 7th Conference on Deep Foundations Technologies for
Infrastructure Development in India is a perfect opportunity for
collaboration.
About the Event
The event starts with a one-day workshop on Mass Soil
Stabilization and Deep Soil Mixing followed by a two-day
technical program with keynote lectures by invited experts
and presentations by authors of accepted abstracts on deep
foundations, deep excavations and ground improvement.
Presentations of practical importance showcasing latest
technologies in the areas of geotechnical investigation, analysis
and design including seismic aspects, treated soil properties,
computer software, tele-networking, instrumentation, testing,
monitoring, installation/construction equipment and methods,
with supporting data on improvement of quality, productivity,
safety and sustainability will be featured.
The event will be of interest to contractors, developers,
agencies, designers, consultants, educators and representatives
from local, state and central government including public and
