  33rd Annual Short Course on Grouting Fundamentals and Current Practice: Colorado School of Mines, Golden CO June 18-22, 2012
  
  The Colorado School of Mines is hosting the 33rd annual short course on Grouting Fundamentals and Current Practice. This course covers injection grouting as a method to improve soil settlement and strength characteristics, and to decrease permeability of soil and rock masses. Major topics covered include properties of cementitious and chemical grouts, procedures for cement and chemical grouting, field monitoring and verification, grouting rock under dams, grouting of rock anchors and micropiles, deep mixing, jet grouting, diaphragm walls, compaction grouting, slab jacking, structural grouting, and grouting for underground structures. Included in the curriculum is a field demonstration of compaction and permeation grouting, flow of ultrafine cement, grout mixing, use of cellular concrete in annular grouting, overburden drilling, grouting of rock anchors, and use of packers.

  13th World Conference of the Associated research Centers for the Urban Underground Space
  (ACUUS 2012 Singapore) will be organised by the Society for Rock Mechanics & Engineering Geology (Singapore) in collaboration with the Tunnelling & Underground Construction Society Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, and Tongji University of China, and is supported by the Signapore Ministry of National Development and the Singapore Convention and Exhibition Board. The main theme for ACUUS 2012 Singapore is "Underground Space Development – Opportunities and Challenges." This theme was chosen to emphasize the unprecedented opportunities for improving urban infrastructure and urban livability while recognizing the special challenges faced in creating underground spaces - technical, economic, and design challenges in order to address human psychology of underground habitation.
