73rd Geomechanics Colloquium and 14th Austrian Tunnel Day 2024

From October 10 to 11, 2024, the 73rd edition of the Austrian Geomechanics Colloquium will take place at the Salzburg Congress Center. The annual colloquium has long since become the meeting place for experts in Central Europe. The event, which includes a trade exhibition, usually attracts over 900 participants, making it one of the largest international events in the field of geomechanics. The day before (October 9, 2024), the 17th Austrian Tunnel Day of the Austrian National Committee of the ITA (International Tunneling Association) will take place at the same venue.

October 9, 2024 Austrian Tunnel Day

The Austrian National Committee of the ITA (International Tunneling Association) organizes the Austrian Tunnel Day one day before the Geomechanics Colloquium. This Tunnel Day has set itself the task of presenting the latest state of the art of Austrian and international engineering concepts in planning and execution. The aim is to present the latest creative developments in planning, construction and operation. The application of such new developments in future tunnel construction projects in planning and execution will promote further innovations.

The following half-day topics are planned:

  • 50 years of ITA Major international projects
  • Digitalization in tunnel construction
  • Field reports on new contract models
  • Presentation of new guidelines and standards for tunnel construction

Participation is only possible in combination with the Geomechanics Colloquium. For more information on the Tunnel Day, please see the flyer (link opposite).
