About the Conference
11th Annual Conference DFI India 2022 will be held during 15-17 September 2022 and the proceedings from the conference will help the participants to deploy good work practices in their projects benefiting by time/cost savings. Completing the foundations in time means completing the project on time, if not well in advance. The conference will have five technical sessions on three days namely 15,16 and 17 September 2022. Advancing the conference dates to September is a conscious decision to overcome the stress of unpredicted monsoons and weather situations in November.
The first session will start with conference inauguration followed by keynote presentations. The second session is a special one on QA & QC Aspects of Bored Piles and Diaphragm Walls. The third and fourth sessions will have keynote presentation, contributory paper presentations and panel discussion apart from corporate presentations. Parallel sessions are planned to accommodate papers on wide range of topics. The highlights of the fifth session on the third day will be the GroundWork and WiDF hours.
The delegates can use the third day afternoon and the following Sunday for Sri Balaji Darshan at the famous Tirupati Temple.
