We look forward to seeing you at this year's NASCC: The Steel Conference.
We'll be in Charlotte, N.C., this year, from April 12 to 14 and registration is now open!
As a previous attendee, you know the Steel Conference delivers extraordinary bang for your buck: practical information you can begin implementing as soon as you get home (and catch up on your sleep--it's an intense few days, right?).
Here are just a few of the things you can expect to learn at this year's conference--while earning up to 17 PDHs!
-
How designers can cut the carbon footprint of a structural system
-
How to save time and money on steel bridge fabrication by using a single coat of inorganic zinc primer as a corrosion protection system
-
What you need to know about welding ASTM A913 steel, whether you're specifying it or doing it yourself
-
How to analyze unbalanced loads on steel deck
-
What fabricators wish engineers knew about hollow structural sections (HSS)
-
How to avoid common mistakes as a new connection designerMust-know fundamentals about torsion design, including a new strength-design approach
-
How to tackle coordination issues with roof and floor penetrations
-
How the team behind a largely exposed AESS structural system handled fire engineering--and why it may not need to be fireproofed
-
How good detailing can make--not break--your project
-
And much, much more.
The Steel Conference incorporates six specialty conferences: the World Steel Bridge Symposium, QualityCon, Architecture in Steel, SafetyCon, the SSRC Annual Stability Conference, and the NISD Conference on Steel Detailing. See aisc.org/nascc for details about what those conferences have to offer this year!
As always, we'll have an exciting exhibit hall packed with innovations from more than 250 exhibitors.. And this year's conference dinner is at the jaw-dropping NASCAR Hall of Fame, an I.M. Pei-designed whirl of sleek steel and gleaming lights!
