Welcome Message

The Institute for Infrastructure Engineering and Sustainable Management (IIESM),Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) has over the years been instrumental inproviding a platform for several collaboration research program and publicationsinvolving all Civil Engineering disciplines. IIESM has so far focused on researchwith the aims to solve infrastructure and environmental engineering problems witha more sustainable way.

IIESM in collaboration with Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia; MahatmaGandhi University, India and BRE Centre for Innovative Construction Materials,UK are organizing a 3-day “International Civil and Infrastructure EngineeringConference 2014, (InCIEC 2014)”. The conference is supported by IEEE MalaysiaIE/IA Joint Chapter dated from 28th September to 1st October 2014 in KotaKinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia.

It is hoped that InCIEC 2014 will be a useful platform for researchers to presenttheir findings in the areas of multidisciplinary related to civil engineering issuesemphasizes on concrete waste and earthquake engineering, construction projectmanagement, fluvial and river engineering dynamics, geotechnical engineering,innovative construction materials and structures, micro and nanotechnology inconstruction and civil engineering, sustainable environment, timber engineering andtransportation systems, infrastructure and intelligent transport. Besides, this con-ference is also a platform for researchers to establish new interfaces, compare thefindings, benchmark their work, exchange views, and widen the scope and rangeof their research activities. The conference is also looking forward to new peers indiverse areas of expertise.

On behalf of the organising committee we would like to take this opportunity toexpress our gratitude to all reviewers and participants for their support to ensure thesuccess of this event. We also would like to thank all the authors, session chair-persons, and delegates for the great support and contribution given. Last but notleast, a special thank goes to the organising committee, who have been working

v

hard toward the success of this event. Without their cooperation, hard work, anddedication, this event would simply not be possible.

We wish all participants and presenters, have a very pleasure stay in KotaKinabalu and do enjoy the conference.

About IIESM

The Institute for Infrastructure Engineering and Sustainable Management (IIESM)was officially approved by the Universiti Teknologi MARA, Malaysia as anInstitute on the 7th of January 2009. The formation of this Institute would furtherexpedite research and publication activities at the university. IIESM focuses onresearch in all civil engineering disciplines that enlighten a broader scope inresearch and engineering education. Our aim is to solve infrastructure and envi-ronmental engineering problems in a more sustainable way and introduce new state-of-the-art technology.It is a merger of 10 research excellence centres which are:

1. Timber Engineering Research Centre (TEReC)2. Concrete Waste Engineering and Earthquake Research Centre (CWE2C)3. Flood Management and Intelligence Development Centre (FloodMind)4. Fluvial and River Engineering Dynamics Centre (FRiEnD)5. Geotechnical Forensic Research Centre (GEOFORENSIC)6. Innovative Construction Materials and Structures Centre (ICMSC)7. Bioremediation Research Centre (mybioREC)8. Geotechnical Engineering and Georisk Management Centre (myGERMEC)9. Synergistic Innovative Management Research Centre (SIMReC)

10. Transportation Systems, Infrastructure and Intelligent Transport ResearchCentre (TransIIT)

Vision

To establish the institute as a premier entity to provide leadership in thescholarship of research and consultancy.

vii

Mission

To be the excellence centre and an engine of growth for new knowledge to solvefuture problem.
