Strategies to Ensure Sustainable Funding, Design, Construction and Maintenance of Asia’s Bridge Infrastructure
Bridges Asia is the annual regional bridge engineering conference at which stakeholders exchange information on upcoming bridge projects, investment and operational patterns, engineering/material advances and new technologies.
Backed by years of research with the industry and close industry alignment, the growing event brings together all stakeholder groups in transport infrastructure to discuss the growing needs of bridge infrastructure in Asia.
Exciting news for professionals from transport infrastructure industry
For the first time
Bridges Asia and Tunnel Design & Construction Asia
are to be co-located…
28 – 29 February 2012, Hong Kong
To enhance the networking between the stakeholders of both the tunnel and bridge engineering industry groups, IQPC will be co-hosting our popular 3rd annual Tunnel Design & Construction Asia conference with Bridges Asia 2012 in Hong Kong.
While the conferences will be run concurrently, the networking, exhibition spaces and few panel discussions will be common for both the conferences.
Watch this space for more info and/or log on to www.tunneldesignconstruction.com.
Bridges Asia 2012 will be the third annual event and will present the leading design, engineering and material innovations used in iconic and technically complex bridges across the region.
The event is designed to address needs of individual stakeholder groups, while facilitating strong networking for techno-commercial discussions.
“Bridges Asia 2012 is advised by accomplished experts from AEC, EPC and Funding bodies and will provide stakeholders with the best practices and trends in design, engineering and material solutions needed to develop cost effective, efficient and sustainable infrastructures.”
Bridges Asia 2012 will examine:
- Sustainability and cost efficiency in construction of bridges
- Engineering challenges for seismic, wind and impact prone long span bridges
- Funding for bridge infrastructure and legal aspects/risk management in EPC contracting
Trends and new techniques in:
- Bridge information modelling and 3D computational analysis
- Accelerated bridge construction methods
- BHMS and standardisation of bridge maintenance procedures
- Retrofitting existing bridge stock
- Alternative and composite bridge materials
- Implications of Eurocodes
- Value engineering and LCA in bridge construction
