Driving sustainable, durable and creative bridge design and engineering across Europe

The best of bridge design and engineering across Europe

As the Euro Codes take a stronger hold over the infrastructure construction community, opportunities for multinational project teams to come together are increasing exponentially.

Bridges Europe 2010 is the best place to start breaking the silos between the regions…

Bridges Europe 2010 will bring you the major bridge construction projects from across the continent. Covering topics from design through to engineering and construction, case studies from much anticipated projects across Europe will educate you on many levels.

Download the brochure for more information on how you will address:

  • The impact of the Euro Codes on bridge design, engineering and construction with the help of experts Steve Denton and Joel Raoul
  • The importance of material selection in the design process and how it will impact the construction with examples of the building of the Neue Rethebrücke
  • The effects of extreme natural conditions such as the seismic activity addressed in the Messina project’s design
  • The impact of an environmental assessment such as that carried out for the Femern Crossing

But it’s not all facts and figures;

Bridges Europe 2010 will bring together the project heads from across the region for two days of networking. This is your chance to meet with the rest of the bridge construction community…

Perhaps a bigger profile is warranted? Read about the sponsorship and exhibition opportunities.

Come to learn, come to network, or come to be seen. Whatever your reason, you need to come to Bridges Europe 2010.
