The main function of National Committee is to promote,
coordinate and recommend funding of research programme to be
taken up by the institutions in the country on basic and applied
research, action research, and other areas related to research
in the areas of Soil Mechanics, Foundation Engineering, Rock
Mechanics and Tunneling Technology, Concrete Technology
Construction Material Structures.
Two national committees namely:
· Indian National Committee on Geotechnical Engineering (INCGE)
· Indian National Committee on Construction Materials and
Structures (INCCMS)
are based in CSMRS
These committees have now been merged to constitute a committee
name Indian National Committee on Geotechnical Engineering and
Construction material (INCGEM) vide order No. 37/1/208- R &
D/5706-08 dated 5th September, 2008.
The new Committee Under Chairmanship
of Member (D & R) Central
water Commission has a total 15 members and have its Secretariat
at CSMRS. The Secretariat is under administrative control of
Director, CSMRS, Who Has been Nominated as Permanent member of
the Committee. Joint Director, CSMRS is the Member Secretary of
the Committee.
