F i r s t I n t e r n a t i o n a l W o r k s h o p DESIGN OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES USING EN September 2010, Prague, Czech Republic Concrete design is both an art and science. With the new knowledge, new technology and novel materials, the codes are becoming more complex and the computer-aided design is the necessity for designing and detailing of reinforced concrete members. The current European practice in structural engineering tends more and more to accepting the benefits to be gained from using the Eurocodes for design of structures. This First International Workshop focuses on the application of EN , since this standard has been introduced and accepted as the national standard in many European countries and there already are some practical experiences with its use. The Organizing Committee expects a creative discussion which will continue after the Workshop on the following subjects: Background of EN , Main features in National Annex, Experiences with National Annex, Experiences with practical design, Tables, charts and aids for design of concrete structures, Proposals of major changes for the next revision of standard. The workshop topics will be upgraded on the applicant’s demand. Recognized experts and specialists in design of concrete structure from all over Europe will participate, thus offering a unique opportunity to share their experience and acquired knowledge. 15 February 2010 – Submission of Abstracts 15 March 2010 – Acceptance of Abstracts 15 June 2010 – Submission of Full Papers 15 July 2010 – Reservation of Accommodation – Early Registration Authors are invited to submit 100-word abstract related to the workshop subject by 15 February The call for papers and the preliminary registration form for workshop are enclosed or you can find it on the website of the workshop.
