Underground Construction Prague 2016

We hope that the attractiveness of the 13th International Conference Underground Construction Prague 2016 will be enhanced by connection with the 3rd Eastern European Tunnelling Conference (EETC 2016). The EETC is a biennial regional tunnelling conference. It aims to promote the sharing of knowledge, experience, skills, ideas and achievements in the design, financing and contracting, construction, operation and maintenance of tunnels and other underground facilities among the countries of Eastern Europe, on an organized basis and with agreed aims.

The conference will surely bring interesting information about the important constructions in the Czech Republic, as over 4 km long railway tunnel Ejpovice currently excavated by an EPB shield, upcoming project of the Prague metro line D or findings from the extraordinary constructions opened in Prague in 2015 – the Blanka road tunnel complex and extension of line A of the Prague metro. Our Slovak colleagues will give presentations inspired by the unprecedented scope of the existing tunnel excavations in the Slovak Republic. Many prestigious international projects will be presented, some of them are listed among Invited Lectures and Keynote Lectures. The joint conference will be held at the Clarion Congress Hotel Prague and will include a technical exhibition and a poster session. The conference dinner will take place at the extraordinary and favorite environment of the Brevnov Monastery in Prague 6.
