Symposia

Nine symposia will be held in parallel with the general sessions during the conference. People who plan to present at these symposia are welcome to submit an optional full paper after the abstract is accepted by the conference committee. The submitted full paper will be peer reviewed, and once accepted be published as a special publication of ASCE or a special issue of ASCE jounal.
