What is New to Piling and Deep Foundations Australia 2010?

IQPC is pleased to present the new and improved Piling and Deep Foundations Australia event taking place on 29 and 30 November 2010 in Brisbane. Building on the success of last year’s Piling and Deep Foundations event in Brisbane 2009, we have taken all the elements that made it great but also incorporated attractive additions to the event.

IQPC will be working collaboratively with the industry to make the Piling and Deep Foundations conference in Brisbane an annual event; bringing together the entire industry to share strategies, ideas and solutions to the problems you face.

Piling Federation Partnership

This year the Piling Federation will work in close partnership with us to ensure the quality of the event meets the high expectations from industry. Based on the recommendations by the Piling Federation and industry we have addressed the following areas:

Price: $1,499 + GST which is more than half the previous cost of attending

Program & Speaker Faculty: An advisory panel combining industry experts will ensure participating speakers and case studies are the most “in demand” by the industry

Dinner & Networking Drinks: Every attendee will be invited to attend an evening dinner which will be included in the registration fee

Building Solid Foundations through Efficient Piling Operations, Quality Site Investigations, Accurate Testing and Optimised Piling Techniques

Operating in such a competitive industry, it is ESSENTIAL to ensure your organisation is aware of the latest piling practices being implemented in the market. Piling & Deep Foundations 2010 will combine the thoughts of leading piling engineers, project managers and geotechnical engineers to discuss and debate the advancement of the piling industry.

If your organisational aims are to win the next BIG contract, this conference will give additional knowledge on how to gain competitor advantage!

  • Designing, testing and implementing sustainable deep-ground piling foundations that will ensure the infallible integrity for the life of the structure
  • Designing cost effective means for constructing deep foundations
  • Improving the safety of deep foundations in difficult geotechnical conditions
  • Overcoming base resistance through innovative testing systems
  • Solving piling problems during the construction phase
  • Educating all stakeholders involved in construction projects the importance of piling and deep foundations
  • Key national and international piling case studies
