This is the third SINOROCK symposium: the first was held at the Three Gorges Dam Project site in 2004; the second was held at the University of Hong Kong in 2009. The Symposium will concentrate on developing the rock engineering design process through the linkage of rock characterisation, modelling and design methods, including feedback from the construction process itself. The Symposium is being held in association with the 2011-2015 ISRM Commission on Rock Engineering Design.
