The 10th International Conference on Bridges in Danube Basin

The 10th International Conference on Bridges in Danube Basin will take place from 25th to 27th September 2019 in Vienna

As organizer it`s our pride and honor that this, after its first time in Vienna in 1992, now 27 years later, meanwhile traditional conference, will take place again in Vienna!

CONFERENCE HISTORY

The Danube River is an international waterway flowing 2860 km across Europe from the heights of the Black Forest (Schwarzwald) down to the Black Sea delta. In its passage, the second longest European river crosses 22 geographical meridians, joining 10 countries: Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and the Ukraine. The Danube drainage basin extends into nine further countries.

 

The International Conference on Bridges in the Danube Basin has become a traditional international event in bridge engineering, initiated by Prof. Miklós Iványi and organized periodically each third year in different Danube countries: 1992 on a ship, sailing on the Danube from Vienna via Bratislava to Budapest, 1995 in Bucharest, 1998 in Regensburg, 2001 in Bratislava, 2004 in Novi Sad, 2007 in Budapest, 2010 in Sofia, 2013 in Timisoara and Belgrade and 2016 in Žilina. The tenth International Conference on Bridges in Danube Basin will take place in Vienna in September 2019, aiming to analyse present trends in bridge construction in every Danube country.

AIM OF THE CONFERENCE

The main goal of the Conference is the overall exchange of knowledge and experiences between different institutions, proprietors, contractors, bridge designers and constructors, as well as scientific experts. The selected papers that will be presented at the Conference will be primarily discussing bridges across the Danube and its tributaries, i.e. bridges situated in the Danube Basin. The Conference also aims to promote advances in bridge engineering.
