Theme: Innovative, Sustainable, and Resilient Buildings and Infrastructure

Theme Description: 
The ICACIE 2026 focuses on shaping the future of civil and infrastructure engineering through innovation, sustainability, and digital transformation. It aims to integrate smart technologies and sustainable practices in the design, construction, and management of modern infrastructure systems. 

Publisher: IEEE book preceding, also, we welcome other publishers. 

Key focus areas include: 

  • Structural and construction innovations 
  • Applications of artificial intelligence and Building Information Modelling (BIM) 
  • Smart and green infrastructure 
  • Climate-resilient and low-carbon design 
  • Geotechnical and transportation advancements 
  • Water and environmental engineering 

    By bridging civil engineering with technology and sustainability, ICACIE 2026 aims to foster collaboration toward developing resilient, efficient, and future-ready infrastructure for a smarter and more sustainable world.
