2013 Symposium for Buildings, Bridges and Geotechnical Engineering (April 2013)
Attendees will be introduced to the latest advances in tall building, hybrid bridges, rail track and pile raft foundation analysis and design. They will also be exposed to the latest practices in engineering and design through several case studies. The workshop will be geared towards the pragmatic approach of analyzing and designing using MIDAS programs.
The recent years have seen tremendous advances in structural and geotechnical engineering disciplines, especially in the Middle East. Structures such as the Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Metro and the soon to be constructed Kingdom Tower (Jeddah, Saudi Arabia) have pushed the envelope like never before. As such, it becomes imperative for practicing engineers and academia to be up to speed with all the latest developments in the engineering fields.
This annual symposium will focus on new advances in bridge, building and geotechnical engineering principles and practices. The three-day symposium will cover such topics as Hybrid Bridges, Rail Track Analysis, High Rise Structures, 3D Pile Raft Foundations and much more. There will also be lectures and case studies from eminent professors and professionals.
