The 2010 International Conference on Sustainable Design and Construction Engineering (SDCE 2010)

SDCE is the main annual research conference in Singapore aimed at presenting current research being carried out. Currently SDCE 2010 will be held on 26 to 28 February 2010. The idea of the conference is for the scientists, scholars, engineers and students from the Universities all around the world and the industry to present ongoing research activities, and hence to foster research relations between the Universities and the industry. The conference proceeding will proudly published by World Academic Press, and be included in the British Library, and indexed by Nelson and Thomson ISI.
