LUSAS is pleased to announce that
the 2012 International Bridge Analysis Seminar on the subject of Assessment and Rehabilitation
of Bridges will take place at
the
Institution of Structural Engineers, 11 Upper Belgrave Street, London, UK on 7 March 2012.
Presentations by
industry renowned speakers from leading consultancies and other organisations,
and also by key LUSAS staff, will give
engineers attending a broad insight into the various finite element analysis tools and techniques
available to assess
a range of steel, concrete and masonry bridge structures and assist with
providing suitable remedial or retrofit solutions.
Seminar format: Following
an initial welcome and introduction to all those attending, the day's events kick-off with a
keynote address by Chris
Hendy, Head of Bridge Design and Technology at Atkins. This is followed by
a detailed look at current recommended methods for idealising and
modelling a range of bridge structures using finite element techniques. Then,
three individual sessions on steel, concrete and masonry arch structures will
feature overview presentations, FE modelling demonstrations and
real-life case studies on UK and international projects presented by
speakers from Flint & Neill,
University of Cardiff, BEBO Arch International AG, and URS. A
closing session for discussion and closing remarks
completes the day's agenda.
