- Expert short courses were run on CPT, DMT/SDMT and Sampling & Laboratory Testing;

- An inspiring J K Mitchell Lecture was made by Prof. An-Bin Huang from Taipei;

- Eight excellent keynote lectures: Dr. Kenji Mori - Japan; Prof. Antonio Gens - Spain; Prof. Carlos Santamarina - Saudi Arabia; Prof. Ross Boulanger - USA; Dr. Nina Stark - USA; Prof. Mark Randolph - Australia; Prof. Paul Mayne - USA; Dr. Ken Been - Canada;

- 24 technical sessions at which 185 papers were presented;

- A post-conference technical tour was made to Brisbane Airport's New Parallel Runway (NPR) project, certainly one of the most complex and largest-scale ground improvement projects in Australia.
