2. Background and Objectives
2.1 Background
Civil engineering infrastructure is important for socio-economic development of economically
developing countries. However, economically developing countries face many challenges in
developing infrastructure such as: 1) limited investments in infrastructure, 2) lack of appropriate
technology, 3) limited human resources, 4) lack of appropriate local standards and guidelines, 5)
inadequate consulting and contracting capacity, 6) inadequate maintenance, and 7) high risks
associated with implementation of infrastructure projects.
Over the past 50 years or so, Japan has grown to become one of the world leaders in the civil
engineering infrastructure industry both in terms of the size of the industry and level of technology.
Over this period, the infrastructure industry in Japan has developed and accumulated advanced
technology that is known world over such as the bullet train technology (shinkansen), tunneling
technology, bridge technology, soft ground improvement technology for foundations, intelligent
transport systems (ITS), etc. Japan's experience in infrastructure development offers many relevant
lessons to today's economically developing countries. Said otherwise, many economically
developing countries are looking to Japan to share its experiences on infrastructure development
through technology transfer.
Past attempts to transfer the technology of advanced countries as-it-is have suffered many setbacks
such as not being able to meet the specific local requirements and implementation with incomplete
understanding. This has resulted not only in transfer of technology that does not fully function and
which fails to show the return on the investment, but there are also cases that have resulted in
tremendous inefficiency and negative environmental impacts. This calls for the need for "localized"
technology development and transfer, taking into account the country specific local conditions.
Additionally, it is important to aim at achieving environmentally friendly infrastructure in a single
bound by incorporating appropriate methods, concepts and lessons learned in the past by
economically developed countries in their period of economic growth in order to avoid repeating
the same mistakes.
Taking up this challenge, in April 2011 the Department of Civil Engineering at Nagoya University
established a new chair called "Infrastructure Technology Development and Transfer Endowed
Chair" funded by NEXCO Central Nippon Expressway (NEXCO-Central). The broad aim of the
chair is to promote the development, adoption and use of appropriate "localized" technologies in
civil engineering infrastructure development as a basis for socio-economic development of
economically developing countries. For this purpose, case studies on Japan and selected countries
in Asia and Africa are proposed to be undertaken.
The conceptual implementation scheme of the case studies focuses on establishing partnerships
with local universities, government agencies and industry in economically developing countries to
4
develop appropriate strategies for infrastructure technology development and transfer (Figure 1).
To make past and current infrastructure
projects and programs more sustainable, the
implementation scheme emphasizes the need to support local universities in ODA recipient
countries as places to train practitioners and engineers of the future. Universities should be places
for "practical implementation" of research making it more relevant to practice. This calls for
cooperation with ODA projects by local universities and giving feedback.
2.2 Proposed Case Study on Vietnam
The proposed case study on Vietnam is tentatively titled "Alleviation of Environmental Load
through Enhancing Road Infrastructure and Traffic Management Policies in Vietnam". The
proposed collaborating organizations in Vietnam are Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology
(HCMCUT), University of Transport and Communication (UTC), Ministry of Construction,
Ministry of Transport, Hanoi City Government, Ho Chi Minh City Government and other relevant
organizations. The aim of the study is to establish appropriate technologies needed to achieve low
cost, low environmental impact road infrastructure and transportation systems that can contribute to
the sustainable economic development in Vietnam (Figure 2).
The three practical implementations that are targeted in the study are:
1) Proposing and implementing urban transportation management schemes that can contribute to
sustainable developments in Vietnam by effectively alleviating environmental load.
2) Establishing and implementing effective technologies for interregional corridor highways in
Vietnam to alleviate the lifecycle environmental load and maintenance costs through
enhancement of infrastructure and improvements in quality of traffic flows considering local
conditions.
3) Enhancing capacities of civil engineers and traffic engineers in Vietnam.
The study focuses on Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi City, and their peripheries, working on the
introduction of traffic management systems to enable effective use of existing roads and
infrastructure (soft aspect), and on the effective development and maintenance of road
infrastructure (hard aspect). The study will also research, develop and measure the impacts of low
environmental impact transportation, geotechnical and structural technologies that match local
conditions, as well as develop human resources through the establishment of bi-directional
educational programs.
2.3 Objectives of the Workshop
The objective of the proposed workshop is to provide an opportunity for the Nagoya University
Department of Civil Engineering to discuss details of the proposed case study with local
collaborators in Vietnam. More specifically the workshop aims to solicit inputs from local
collaborators to a proposal being developed for funding under the Science and Technology
Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) program funded jointly by Japan
Science and Technology Agency (JST) and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
