Introduction
The main objective for the BCRRA conference is to promote efficient design, construction and maintenance of transport infrastructure by addressing issues related to bearing capacity problems of roads, railways and airfields.
Bearing capacity issues are continuously changing as traffic volumes and weights increase, new materials and methods are developed, and new aspects of design and material utilization are brought into focus. In this context there is an increasing need for a forum where experts in this field, from all over the world, can exchange views and experiences, and discuss new concepts and innovative solutions. The BCRRA conference aims to provide such a forum.
This International and Professional Scientific event covers by tradition important geotechnical aspects, among others subgrade soils and unbound materials related to the Transportation Infrastructure in the framework of the ISSMGE TC.

2.Unbound aggregate materials and soil properties
3.Bound materials characteristics, mechanical properties and testing
4.Traffic loading
5.Field measurement techniques and analysis tools
6.Pavement field evaluation
7.Correlation of laboratory and field testing results
8.Monitoring and assessment of roads, railways and airfields structures
9.Geophysical methods for structural evaluation
10.Pavement surface condition and performance assessment
11.Maintenance and preservation
12.Reinforcement and rehabilitation design
13.Analysis of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) data
14.Drainage and environmental effects
15.Climate change, energy and sustainability
16.Full scale testing (ALF, HVS)
17.Emerging technologies
18.Life cycle analysis
19.Non-standard pavements
20.Case histories of roads, railways and airfields
