The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) is offering three live, interactive steel design webinars as an extension of its eLearning and full-day seminars.
The first webinar, titled Design for Stability, will kick-off the series on September 18, or SteelDay, at 10:30 a.m. Central Standard Time. This free webinar will introduce architects and engineers to incorporating 2005 AISC specification requirements into design. Louis F. Geschwindner, AISC vice president and professor emeritus at Penn State University, will present the webinar.
The next webinar, Welding – Special Applications, will be presented on October 22, 2009, at 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time. Speaker Duane Miller of Lincoln Electric will lead the webinar by giving solutions to several tough welding situations.
The final webinar, Intro to Seismic Steel Design and the AISC Seismic Provisions, will take place on December 10, 2009, at 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time. Speaker Thomas A Sabol, Ph.D., of Englekirk and Sabol Consulting Structural Enginners will lead the webinar. Sabol, who received his Ph.D. in structural and earthquake engineering from UCLA, will teach viewers how to properly use seismic steel design with the AISC seismic provisions.
The first webinar in the series is free to all attendees. The second and third webinars will have fees totaling $185 per connection for AISC members, $285 per connection for non-members and $155 per connection for educators and students.
