Introduction of ACECC

The Asian Civil Engineering Coordinating Council

http://www.acecc‐world.org/


ASCE, PICE and JSCE jointly hosted the First International CivilEngineering Conference in the Asian Region, in Manila in 1998,and strongly realized the necessity for mutual collaboration forsustainable development in Asian Region.

After KSCE and CICHE joined with the above 3 societies,

ACECC was formally established on September 27, 1999 in Tokyo.

Necessity to exchange civil engineering ideas & information

Asian RegionWide variety of developing stages & developing ratesRapid development of economy and infrastructures

Much more investment to Asian countriesMore people have more opportunities to join developments
