The International Conference on Smart Infrastructure and Construction (ICSIC), held at Churchill College Cambridge last week, brought together world-leading experts from the increasingly dynamic field of smart infrastructure and construction including academics, practitioners and policy makers from infrastructure planning, construction, asset management, smart cities and sensing.
The three-day conference was attended by 200 delegates and included over 80 dynamic and engaging presentations, several lunchtime workshops, a conference exhibition and poster area displaying some of the latest innovations in smart infrastructure and construction.
“Our industry is embracing the digital revolution and this was clearly shown by the innovations being presented at ICSIC 2019. We hope the conference has played a part in sharing ideas and knowledge that will advance smart infrastructure and construction,” said Director of CSIC Dr Jennifer Schooling.
Many of the conference presentations across smart sensors, structures, geotechnics, asset management, policy, digital, data analytics and cities are now available to view on the ICSIC YouTube channel. Keynote presentations by Dr Kieth Bowers of COWI, Dr Jerome Lynch of the University of Michigan and Professor Yozo Fujino of the Institute of Advanced Sciences, Yokohama National University, as well as our best paper presentations, will be available online soon.
The online papers are available from the Institute of Civil Engineers (ICE) Virtual Library. Printed proceedings can also be purchased directly from CSIC; please contact Jemma Andrews for more information.
Thank you to all of our speakers, delegates, exhibitors and sponsors and in particular our headline sponsor Topcon. We look forward to seeing you at ICSIC 2022 which will be held at the University of California, Berkeley.
