Greetings!

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2nd International Conference on In Situ Measurement of Soil Properties and Case Histories (INSITU 2026), which will be held in Bali, Indonesia, on September 21–23, 2026.

INSITU 2026 is hosted by Universitas Katolik Parahyangan (UNPAR) under the auspices of TC 102, the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), Indonesian Society for Geotechnical Engineering – Himpunan Ahli Teknik Tanah Indonesia (HATTI), and and Chinese Sub-society for Geoengineering Intelligent Monitoring.

We warmly invite researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers from around the world to participate in this important forum to share insights, exchange experiences, and explore innovations in in situ testing, site characterization, and geotechnical design.

We look forward to welcoming you to INSITU 2026.

See you in Bali!

INSITU 86

The Specialty Conference on In Situ Measurement of Soil Properties was held at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia, USA, on June 23–25, 1986. The conference was sponsored by the Geotechnical Engineering Division of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). It was initiated by Prof. Jean-Louis Briaud in collaboration with the Shallow Foundation and Deep Foundation Committees of the Geotechnical Division, and was organized under the leadership of Prof. James M. Duncan, who served as Conference Chairman.
