The engineering solution and new technology need to be developed in foundation engineering and construction to achieve high engineering value, by increasing the quality and g g g y g q y reducing the cost. This paper make the review and discussion on the application and development of civil engineering and technology in Vietnam. Achievements, innovations, lesson learned as well as experiences from collapse and failure of projects as well as challenges and oportunities in civil engineering are presented, described Vietnam Macro Economic • Area: 332 000 Km2 • Populations: 84 Millions • Total GDP: 84 Billion USD • GDP / Capita: 1000 USD • GDP Growth ( 2009): 5 % GDP Growth ( 2009): 5 % • Exchange Rate (2008): 17,714 VND per USD • Total Number of Engineers : More than 800 000 • Civil engineering about 300000 [...]...
