PREFACE
It is our immense pleasure to publish the proceedings of the 6
th International Conference on Advances in 
Civil Engineering (ICACE 2022), organized by the Department of Civil Engineering, Chittagong 
University of Engineering & Technology (CUET) on 21-23 December 2022. The aim of this conference 
is to bring together the leading academic experts and professionals from different disciplines of civil 
engineering around the globe to exchange new ideas, share knowledge and explore the cutting-edge 
technological developments in this field of civil engineering. The Editorial Board of ICACE 2022 also 
believes that this prestigious event provides not only a real platform of exchanging and sharing the 
scientific and technical information of relevant fields among all the participants from home and abroad 
but at the same time offers a bridge between academia and industries. 
This proceeding contains accepted papers of the 6th ICACE-2022, covering basic civil engineering 
branches. The book mostly covers some hands-on articles on different realistic problems in civil 
engineering. To be specific, the current applications of advanced civil engineering knowledge in 
developing countries have been highlighted. In general, the topic covers construction and building 
materials, eco-friendly ground improvement, waste disposal technique, waste management, the durability 
of different concrete structures, various aspects of foundation engineering, transport planning, water 
resources management and sustainable development scenarios in developing countries.
As an event, the conference is considered to be highly successful. From 376 initially submitted abstracts, 
342 abstracts were selected for full paper submission. Out of them, 210 full papers were received from 
the authors, which were undergone through a peer review process. Finally, 153 papers were selected for 
this proceeding. Following another double-blind review process on the finally selected papers, around 50 
papers will be published in a Springer book series after the conference. 
To conclude, the team expresses its heartiest gratitude to fellow members of different committees for their 
hard and sincere work in materializing the event. The continuing success of this conference series shows 
us the light for the next ICACE 2024.
