 MEMSCON Workshop Event in Bucharest


The partners in MEMSCON organized a workshop on Structural Monitoring and Assessment of Civil Engineering Structures. It took place on October 7, 2010 in Bucharest, Romania. The goal of this workshop was to provide a state-of-the-art report on recent research activities, technological utilization and commercialization activities in structural monitoring systems and software for the status-dependent maintenance and repair of constructed facilities. 

This event brought together European construction companies, owners of constructed facilities, insurance companies, policy makers and sector experts.

Below you can find all the presentations given at the workshop.
