    BAM and Bildungswerk VDV invite you to the "Measurements in Building Engineering" specialist conference on 08.11.2016

    Berlin, 25.10.2016. A technologically safe transport infrastructure is of key importance for the German market place. To ensure maximum safety, modern ageing management is used in all areas of infrastructure using reliable non-destructive test methods and intelligent systems for comprehensive structural assessment.

    This year's conference will focus on lifelong monitoring of infrastructure. Their monitoring and assessment is a key task to ensure infrastructure network functionality. "Lifelong measurement procedures can reliably detect stresses and their local and global impacts on structures in many cases", says Dr.-Ing. Matthias Baeßler, Head of BAM’s Buildings and Structures Division. "Based on measured values, conclusions about the remaining service life can be drawn and optimised maintenance concepts formulated. The aim is to provide reliable information for operators and owners of structures and facilities".

    In addition to BAM scientists, renowned experts from the Darmstadt Technical University, the Federal Highway Research Institute, the Water and Shipping Administration and companies from Berlin will also participate in the conference.

    Registrations for the conference on 08.11.2016 are still being accepted. The registration fee is €70 for VDV members, €100 for non-members and €25 for students. Registration is possible online via the BILDUNGSWERK VDV at http://anmeldung.bw-vdv.de. The venue is the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) in Berlin-Steglitz. More information about the 2016 "Measurements in Building Engineering" conference is available at the BAM Website.
