Anh Chi Nguyen and Petras Vestartas, both PhD students at IBOIS, the Laboratory for Timber Constructions will present their research at the IASS (International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures) Symposium in Barcelona, Spain, Form and Forces Joint International Conference (Octobre 7th to 10th).

About the event :

The IASS
60th Anniversary Symposium (IASS SYMPOSIUM 2019)
9th Int. Conference on Textile Composites and Inflatable Structures (STRUCTURAL MEMBRANES 2019)

Following the customary celebration of the IASS Symposium every ten years in Spain and the Structural Membranes Conference every four years in Barcelona, the organizers have found an outstanding opportunity to merge both communities into a joint international conference that aims to provide a forum for state-of-the-art contributions and fruitful discussion in the broad fields of shell, spatial, tension and inflatable structures.

The conference will cover all aspects related to material, design, computation, construction, maintenance, history, environmental impact and sustainability of shell, spatial, tension and inflatable structures in all fields of application.
