INTRODUCTION Pursuit of newer and innovative ideas has no limits and therefore activities of research have to continue and grow.There is a huge demand for natural aggregates in the construction sector which can be reduced to some extent by recycling construction and demolition wastes with Green initiatives. New materials have emerged. New technologies and innovative concepts are developed. The objective of this seminar is to bring together scientists and Civil Engineers from a wide range of academic disciplines and industrial backgrounds who have an interest in the response of the structure and materials. Themes in General Structural Engineering v Hydraulics and Water resources Engineering v Environmental Engineering v Geotechnical and Geo-environmental engineering v Highway and Transportation Engineering v Application of Geo-informatics in Civil engineering v Mathematical modelling in Civil Engineering v Construction Technology and Management v Disaster Mitigation and Management v Infrastructural Planning and Management v Damage Diagnosis and Assessment v System identification and Structural Health Monitoring v New /Alternative,sustainable materials and Technologie v Repair, Retrofitting, and Restoration of infrastructures v Remedial and Forensic engineering v Energy efficient,Green /Environmental friendly buildings v Water, soil, and air pollution, and their control v Environmental Impact Assessment v Construction and Demolition waste recycling, its management v Optimization techniques v GIS and remote sensing applications in Civil Engineering v Civil Engineering Applications of Geology v
