Workshop on Connections for Building Structures in the 21st Century

邀请国内和国际专家参加的讲习班 计划审查和讨论目前的做法，研究需求， 以及建筑物结构连接的新兴技术。 研讨会将重点讨论建筑业的需求 在钢、混凝土和混合（钢和 混凝土）建筑。 计划中的讲习班将鼓励 学科间的知识交叉。 连接是推进互联网的关键挑战之一， 结构系统的技术。 计划的目的 因此，研讨会的目的是确定这些机会， 在连接领域的挑战，这将使不同的， 21世纪世纪，需要一个精心计划和 国家协调的实现办法或解决办法。 研讨会将包括对当今连接技术的回顾 并讨论新兴的和所需的钢铁技术， 混凝土和混合连接。 全体会议的组合 并举行分组会议。 一些精选的基调 将进行演讲，为分组讨论奠定基础 sessions.

An invitational workshop with national and international experts is planned to review and discuss current practice, research needs, and emerging technologies in structural connections for buildings. The workshop will focus on the needs for the construction industry in the three areas of steel, concrete, and mixed (steel and concrete) construction. The planned workshop would encourage a crossover of knowledge among disciplines. Connections represent one of the key challenges in advancing the technology for structural systems. The purpose of the planned workshop is, therefore, to identify those opportunities and challenges in the connection area which will make a difference in the 21st century and which require a carefully planned and nationally coordinated approach for realization or a solution. The workshop will include a review of today's connection technology and discuss the emerging and required technologies for steel, concrete and mixed connections. A combination of plenary sessions and breakout sessions will be conducted. A few selected keynote presentations will be made to set the stage for the breakout sessions.
