Overview
Overview
Growing necessity for maintenance and renovation of complexed urban infrastructures and the increasing vulnerability to natural disasters in developed countries, as well as the urgent demand for quantitative expansion of basic infrastructures in developing countries in Asia and other regions, are the challenges that the present global society is faced with. Under the unstable economic situation surrounding the world, infrastructures and their construction processes have to be rationalized.
Growing necessity for maintenance and renovation of complexed urban infrastructures and the increasing vulnerability to natural disasters in developed countries, as well as the urgent demand for quantitative expansion of basic infrastructures in developing countries in Asia and other regions, are the challenges that the present global society is faced with. Under the unstable economic situation surrounding the world, infrastructures and their construction processes have to be rationalized.
Potential for providing solutions for these challenges can be found in the Press-in Method, featured by its environmental friendliness by the use of hydraulic static loads and its spatial efficiency associated with the self-walking function. To fulfill this, an interdisciplinary academic field - Press-in Engineering- is essential, where sharing of knowledge among the fragmented processes of planning, investigation, design and construction are integrated and the engineers who are engaged in developing construction machines and construction techniques, improving the accuracy and productivity of the construction process as well as conducting the construction itself, are encouraged to closely communicate. This international conference is the specific activity to expand this academic field, to be held in Kochi where the Press-in Method was originated.
