Ground Engineering Technology Forum 2026 at Tokyo Big Sight

The Ground Engineering Technology Forum 2026 will be held at Tokyo Big Sight (3-11-1 Ariake, Koto-ku, Tokyo) from Wednesday, September 16 to Friday, September 18, 2026. This forum will simultaneously host three exhibitions: the "Soil and Groundwater Purification Technology Exhibition," the "Ground Improvement Technology Exhibition," and the "Foundation Engineering Technology Exhibition," bringing together the latest technologies and products related to ground engineering.

In recent years, PFAS contamination of soil and groundwater has become a serious issue, making the development of detection, analysis, and purification technologies, as well as regulatory frameworks, a pressing need. This forum will disseminate the latest information on these challenges through seminars and other sessions. Furthermore, the increasing impact of climate change on ground environments will be addressed, with introductions to methods, materials, construction machinery, and management systems aimed at improving ground strength and stability. A "Disaster Countermeasures Technology Exhibition" will also be co-located, showcasing measures against compound disasters such as earthquakes and heavy rains.

The forum will feature a diverse range of seminars covering adaptation and mitigation of climate change, social implementation of digital technologies, and resilience against increasingly severe natural disasters, catering to various needs. The event also offers certified programs such as the National Civil Engineering Constructors Association CPD Program (2 units per day) and the Japan Society of Civil Engineers CPD Program (2 credits per day), providing valuable opportunities for professional development.

Admission to the event is free, but pre-registration is required. This is a valuable opportunity not only to experience the latest technologies and products but also to deepen knowledge through specialized seminars. It is an unmissable event for ground engineering professionals, industry stakeholders, and anyone interested in ground environmental issues.
