Seminar on Structural Analysis and Design in Kolkata
Wed, 22 May 2013 12:18:00 EDT
You are invited to attend the upcoming Bentley Seminar on Structural Analysis and Design at The Park Hotel, Kolkata, on May 29, 2013.
This event is aimed at showcasing Bentley's latest technology offerings for the structural design, analysis, and project documentation and collaboration.
Bentley's Structural Roadshow Seminar Series.
Fri, 17 May 2013 11:42:00 EDT
Today's structural engineers must strategically support the entire lifecycle of structural projects - buildings, plants, bridges - constructed from a wide variety of materials, including reinforced concrete, structural steel, and metal work. You need to collaborate across your whole project team to productively deliver the most accurate, efficient, and safe infrastructure projects. And that's what you do best.
Half-day, Complimentary Technical Seminars Featuring Bentley's Structural Software for Analysis, Design, Detailing, and Documentation.
June:- Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, Charlotte
July:- Salt Lake City, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Calgary
August and September:- Kansas City, Indianapolis, Dallas, Houston
October:- Chicago, Toronto, New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia
