International Society for Trenchless Technology Exclusive Training Course: July 13 – 14 2008
|
This essential training course will run for two days and will be delivered by the Chairman of the International Society for Trenchless Technology, Dr Dec Downey. The course will be providing an A-Z in trenchless technology highlighting areas pertinent to the Middle East. The ISTT course will equip you with the tools to make educated decisions on the most effective technique to suit your construction project and how trenchless applications will help improve efficiency and execution of projects.
The International Society for Trenchless Technology was established in 1986 with the objectives to advance the science and practice of Trenchless Technology for the public benefit, to promote education, training, study and research in that science and practice. ISTT encourages the formation and affiliation of societies sharing its objectives world-wide. There are now more than 20 such Affiliated Societies in 6 continents.
