Abstract Submission

The North American Society for Trenchless Technology (NASTT) is now accepting abstracts for 2027 No-Dig Show in Raleigh, NC. The conference will take place at the Raleigh Convention Center from March 21-25.

Prospective authors are invited to submit a 250-word abstract outlining the scope of their paper and the principal points of benefit to the trenchless industry. The abstracts must be submitted on this site electronically by Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Abstracts submitted after the deadline will be considered for the standby list.

The NASTT 2027 No-Dig Show Technical Program Committee will review abstracts in August, and we will notify the primary authors of acceptance by August 14. To ensure meaningful and commercial-free technical content, all papers will be peer-reviewed. Final papers will be published and made available online through the NASTT Trenchless Knowledge Hub.
