ASEC2008 Australasian Structural Engineering Conference

ASEC 2008 is a two-day conference scheduled for midway through 2008 directed at structural engineers. This conference is a time out, providing an opportunity for like minded people to meet, share ideas and broaden their technical skills.

ASEC 2008 is directed at time deprived structural engineers who are looking for a chance to renew their interests in structural engineering and for researchers to share their findings. The conference shall be supported by Concrete Institute of Australia, IStructE and IABSE and it is hoped that international and local engineers can participate.

Opportunities shall be provided for the presentation 128 papers and the poster sessions. The ASEC editorial committee shall allocate papers for presentation at the abstract stage. Presenters who miss out on a formal presentation shall be offered the opportunity for a poster presentation. Poster session papers shall be included in the published papers. Special consideration shall be given to practitioners who present innovative engineering solutions to structural problems.

There shall be three plenary presentations where invited eminent international and local speakers shall share their experiences. A conference dinner and an engineering presentation is planned for the Thursday evening.

Abstract submission are now open and close by July 13 2007.
