The World Steel Bridge Symposium (WSBS) is back at this year’s NASCC: The Steel Conference in Louisville, Ky., from April 2–4. This year’s program features a fantastic lineup of expert insights on the latest innovations and projects everyone is talking about, including:
- Competitive short-span steel railway bridges (a prototype is currently in testing)
- Rehabilitation techniques for steel bridges
- Innovations in steel network tied arch bridges
- Steel bridge sustainability
- Design, fabrication, and construction perspectives on the new Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge (the 2024 NSBA Bridge of the Year)
It’s not just the sessions that make this conference so memorable every year—WSBS also offers unmatched networking, connecting you with colleagues from all throughout the steel bridge industry, from design engineers to construction professionals, academics, transportation officials, fabricators, erectors, and constructors.
WSBS will also include a two-hour steel bridge industry roundtable (similar to past successful events NSBA hosted in North Carolina and San Antonio). Last year’s event highlighted ways to streamline notice to proceed to delivery, the pros and cons of x- and k-frames, and much more—plus, the opportunity to build relationships throughout the steel bridge world.
