Time: 8.30 a.m. - 5 p.m.

This is the first time that Thailand will host the ITA-AITES World Tunnel Congress, one of the most privileged congresses in the construction industry. 

Under the theme "Tunnelling and Underground Space for a Global Society", WTC2012 Bangkok will call together the tunnelling and underground space community in the Southeast Asia region to set up a forum with the World Tunnelling Society. Besides being involved in an excellent forum for technical discussion, exchanging ideas and sharing experience, participants will have the opportunity to meet with high-level industry leaders, academics, developers and decision makers from the region and various parts of the world. 

Apart from the standard technical sessions led by prominent keynote lecturers, the Scientific Programme will feature today's challenging issues in the tunnelling and underground construction industry such as Natural Disaster Mitigation and Management Through Underground Space Use, and Underground Structure Resistance Against Seismic Loads.
