Importance & Scope:
Construction and Steel Structure is growing rapidly and its development is making tremendous impacts in infrastructural development, urban planning and industrial expansion. With the overall increase in new projects based on steel structures throughout the world, the field of civil engineering still promises several new advancements.
The scope of this conference is to facilitate knowledge transfer between industrial personnel and scientific researchers on the topics related to construction and expand the boundaries of civil engineering.
Construction and Steel Structure is growing rapidly and its development is making tremendous impacts in infrastructural development, urban planning and industrial expansion. This conference is all about industries, infrastructure, buildings, those are made from organized combination of structural steel that can carry loads and provide adequate rigidity and also required flexibility. Steel Structure-2015 will also include advancing international knowledge transfer in making, shaping and treating of steel. The importance and significance can be gauged by the fact that it has made huge advancements over the course of time and is continuing to influence various sectors.
Why Dubai?
Dubai is the most populous city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and the second largest (4,114 km2) emirate by territorial size after the capital, Abu Dhabi. Dubai has a fascinating history and a vibrant heritage that provides visitors an intriguing glimpse into Arabian culture. Dubai has emerged as a cosmopolitan metropolis that has grown steadily to become a global city and a business and cultural hub of the Middle East and the Persian Gulf region. Today, Dubai has emerged as a global city and business hub of the Persian Gulf region.
Dubai has a rich collection of buildings and structures of various architectural styles. Many modern interpretations of Islamic architecture can be found here, due to a boom in construction and architectural innovation in the Arab World in general, and in Dubai in particular, supported not only by top Arab or international architectural and engineering design firms such as Al Hashemi and Aedas, but also by top firms of New York and Chicago. Dubai now has more completed or topped-out skyscrapers higher than 2/3 km, 1/3 km, or 1/4 km than any other city.
