Dear the secretariat of each national society

First of all, we would like to say thank you very much for your support to the 15th Asian

Regional Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (15ARC) on November

9-13, 2015 in Fukuoka, Japan. Still, we open the call for abstract to ‘Engineering Session Day (ESD)’ on November 11, 2015. In fact, one of the main features of the 15ARC is that one day during the conference period is allocated to be ESD. The details of the ESD are posted on the 15ARC website:

http://www.15arc.org/engineering_session.html

The ESD includes a number of technical reports in practice on major projects all over the world. Leading persons from industry-government-academia will gather together in the fields of practice, such as planning, design, and construction. We believe that ESD will attract many front-line engineers in practice from all over the world.

We would like the member of each Society for Geotechnical Engineering to submit papers which introduce actual projects in your country from practical viewpoints. At present, we call for abstracts for the ESD through the website shown above.
The deadline of the abstract submission is November 30, 2014.

We are very looking forward to the contribution from the member of your society, and participations to the Engineering Session at the 15ARC.

Your cooperation and the support from your society will be very appreciated.

Thank you. Sincerely yours

Kenichi Horikoshi
Chair of the ESD for the 15ARC
