3 days Conferences in Paris
Taking into account the objectives of sustainable development is a major factor for any network infrastructure and equipment. The structures are no exception and steel construction, long-time registered in this movement, is working across Europe and beyond, to continually improve its performance in this area.
This international symposium will be devoted largely on these matter. Organized on the initiative of the European Convention of Steel Construction (ECCS) and the Union of Steel Construction in France (SCMF), it will be indeed an opportunity to compare and share perspectives, practices and experiences, during 3 days through the intervention of a very wide range of prestigious speakers.
We look forward to meeting you in the heart of Paris close to the "Etoile place" at the headquarters of our partner, the French Building Federation FFB.
We invite you to review the program and register early, the number of participants is likely to be limited beyond 250.

Fatigue Design of Steel and Composite Structures
Authors: Alain Nussbaumer, Luis Borges and Laurence Davaine / Publisher: ECCS and Ernst & Sohn / Price: 55€
This volume addresses the specific subject of fatigue, a subject not familiar to many engineers, but still relevant for proper and good design of numerous steel structures. It explains all issues related to the subject: Basis of fatigue design, reliability and various verification formats, determination of stresses and stress ranges, fatigue strength, application range and limitations. It contains detailed examples of applications of the concepts, computation methods and verifications.

Intergalva is the leading international forum for the exchange of information on the latest developments in general (batch) hot dip galvanizing of steel components and structures.
Intergalva 2012 includes a 3-day conference programme that will cover:
- Market and product development – including coating durability; new applications in renewable energy and other sectors; innovative coating technologies.
- Process technology – including plant design; kettle management/life; flux and degreasing technology; post-treatments; bath alloys.
- Environment and safety – including improvements in environmental performance; operational safety; material efficiency.
- Regulatory status – including regulatory issues affecting markets/applications; future evolution of environmental controls on processes.
- Sustainable Development – galvanizing’s contribution to meeting the goals of sustainable building and maintaining the value of infrastructure assets.
A special session will explore the use of galvanizing in architecture.
Papers are invited in any of the above themes. Proposals for papers to be presented at Intergalva 2012 should be submitted by 30 November 2011.
