On September 8, 2017, Modern Solutions for the Use of Aluminium in Bridge Engineering Conference will be held on the premises of the Aluminium Association.
Aluminium bridges (pedestrian, motor, rail) are built and operated abroad for several decades. However, there is no widespread practice of building bridges from aluminium alloys in Russia to date. This is mainly due to the misconception of the high cost of aluminium bridges versus concrete or steel, because of the lack of an up-to-date regulatory framework that would regulate the use of aluminium alloys in construction. The time had come to change the outdated regulatory framework created in the 1980s and 1990s. Why is the use of aluminium for bridge structures attractive? The answer to this and many other questions about the advantages of aluminium alloy bridges can be received on this conference.
Speakers: PML Gmb (Germany), Volgaavtodorproekt (Nizhny Novgorod), GS-Reserve, MGSU, Metakon-Center, Mosty research & development centre, Casting-Extrusion Plant Segal, Sespel.
Participants: design organisations, customers of construction, reconstruction and repair and operators (asset holders of road infrastructure facilities, members of the Aluminium Association interested in the implementation of the projects of aluminium bridges.
