ABSTRACT: Please find below the instructions to present your summary at the 13 th BGA Young Engineers’ Symposium, Manchester, 30 June-2 July 2012. Summaries should be typed in Times New Roman 9 (TNR 9) in MS Word format (.doc or .docx, no pdf) on A4 sized paper and should not exceed 2 pages. Do not adjust the page margins. Abstracts should not exceed 10 lines. Note that you should have permission to use any figures that you are not the copyright holder. Please write you summary in good technical English. A collection of all the summaries will be made available online for downloads by ICE Publishing and/or the host organisation after the Symposium.

KEYWORDS: please provide a relevant keyword list (1 line only).

1 INTRODUCTION. FIRST LEVEL HEADING

First paragraph (no indentation). Just write your text according to the template format (you may use the paintbrush icon to reproduce the relevant item format).

Second paragraph (indented; no open line between paragraphs). References are introduced in the text as follows in the order of the year of publication (Darcy 1856, Gibson and Henkel 1954, Bustamante et al. 1998). Schünmann (2004) also reported the same result.

1.1 Second level heading

Please put one open line before a Figure (centered, see Figure 1) or a Table (use the Figure tag or use paintbrush).

Figure 1. Figure caption (TNR 8). Please provide good quality drawings (min. 300 dpi) with fully readable legends (characters size > 1mm). Number Figures consecutively.

Do not use colours to differentiate the curves on a graph (B&W Proceedings). Use greyscale for photographs. Use SI units.

1.1.1 Third level heading

One open line before and after Tables (see Table 1).

Table 1. Table caption (TNR 8), numbered consecutively. Tables placed below caption. TNR 8 for text and numbers in Table.

Parameter a b

Parameter x (unit) 14.0 19.2

Parameter y (unit) 8.4 0.5

Equations (between two open lines) should be numbered at the end of the line in parentheses (see Eq. 1).

y=√b2−4 ac (1)

2 CONCLUSION

Thank you for following these instructions. Please do not exceed the two page limit.
