SUMMARY:SHOWTIME
DESCRIPTION:Steel Hybrid Onshore Wind Towers Installed with Minimal Effort \nConventional tubular wind towers become impractical and uneconomical at the greater heights required by increasingly powerful wind turbines or when located in areas with natural obstacles for wind flow. \nThis full-day event will present the results of a 3 year research project that investigated an economical solution for tall onshore wind towers based on a hybrid design comprising a steel lattice lower part and a steel tubular upper part. \nInnovative aspects of the project include the optimisation of the tower erection process\, the transition component between the tubular and lattice parts of the tower\, and the minimisation of in-situ work using newly developed bolted connections. \nThis event is organised by the consortium of the EU-RFCS funded research project ‘SHOWTIME’ (RFSR-CT-2015-00021). \nFor more information and to book your place please visit our website.

SUMMARY:Steel Construction 2030 – Opportunities and Needs
DESCRIPTION:Speakers from both SCI and our member companies will look at some of the opportunities and developments that could be of increasing relevance to the UK steel construction sector over the coming decades. It is clear that there are numerous opportunities for steel to ‘shine’\, not only in buildings but also infrastructure – which will be one of our focuses this year to mark our new relationship with the Steel Piling Group. There are also a number of challenges that steel must face\, and indeed seems well positioned to do so. SCI will present a number of new products and ideas that can help steel address these challenges. Our prototype portal for re-used steel will show that even though there are a number of significant hurdles to overcome if we want to be able to re-use steel that is currently ‘out there’ in our building stock\, developing a data base for future use of steel that is going into current projects would actually be very easy indeed. Our prototype on-line ‘Code of practice’ for UK steel design has been developed in light of recent debates about the use of Eurocodes and former British Standards\, and shows designers what design rules they can use\, and guides them on how to use those rules correctly. It will also facilitate migration to the next generation of Eurocodes. We will also present our thoughts on more robust and user-friendly offerings for third party certification\, including Product Certificates targeted specifically at the steel construction sector and with the aim of being absolutely clear to potential specifiers of a given product.

SUMMARY:Designing in Stainless Steel
DESCRIPTION:Designing in Stainless Steel\nTuesday 26th September 2017\, Imperial College\, London\nStainless steel is used for a wide range of structural applications in aggressive environments where reliable performance over long periods with little maintenance is required. In addition\, stainless steel has an attractive appearance\, is strong yet still light\, highly ductile and versatile in terms of manufacturing. \nThis one day seminar will launch the Fourth Edition of the Design Manual for Structural Stainless Steel and will equip engineers with the skills necessary to design structural stainless steel in accordance with current European design practice\, the seminar will demonstrate design versatility and highlighting procurement issues.\nEach delegate will receive a copy of this new publication. \nTopics to be covered include:\n•    Material and mechanical properties\n•    Recent case studies\n•    Designing members and connections\n•    Fire resistance \nThe seminar is part of PUREST (Promotion of new Eurocode rules for structural stainless steel)\, a European dissemination project funded by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel. \nCost to attend £50\, refreshments included.\nTo register;\nEducation@steel-sci.com\n+44 0 (1) 344 636500

SUMMARY:Steel Building Design to EC3 - Edinburgh
DESCRIPTION:Making the change to Eurocode design\nBS5950 has been withdrawn and designers are increasingly being asked to use the Eurocode suite for new works. The changes (and the number of documents) can initially appear overwhelming – until the Eurocode approach is explained and examples undertaken.\nAs the experts in steel design\, the SCI have prepared this course to introduce experienced steel designers to the Eurocode provisions for steel design. The course focuses on orthodox construction\, covering the primary design issues for practicing engineers. The course will deliver a sense of reassurance that design to EC3 will become straightforward in time\, and indeed has advantages in some areas. \nPlease click here for more information \nEmail Jane Burrell to book a place : education@steel-sci.com \n

SUMMARY:The Past\, Present and Future of Steel Construction
DESCRIPTION:To coincide with SCI’s 30th birthday we will be reflecting on the past\, and looking at predictions for the future\, to provide an insight into the shape of steel construction in years to come. We have witnessed some massive changes in the UK\, not least of which is ever growing competition from outside these shores. However\, we can also benefit from an international perspective to see how other markets have evolved their steel production\, steel products and site practices to suit changing commercial\, technical and societal drivers.\nYou will hear from: \n• Mike Walsh of Hatch Consulting who will illustrate how history tells us that the future for steel is bright. He will discuss how the technologies of steel production have evolved and what the limitations for steel products are.  Generation of revenue from producing steel\, not by selling tonnage\, but from differentiation and the provision of good service will also be considered. \n• Carl Perry of BlueScope will take a global perspective to consider how products and construction processes change to suit different economic and technical drivers. He will highlight the trend to use less\, but higher strength\, steel and the other materials it must compete with. By considering different markets we can see how UK products and practice may evolve. \n• Graham Couchman of SCI will reflect on the rapid rise to dominance of steel construction in the UK since the decision to form an independent organisation (SCI) to develop and promote the proper and effective use of steel as a constructional material. He will highlight some landmark projects and achievements for the sector\, and consider how the nature of SCI has evolved over the years. \nVisit the ‘The Crystal‘ website. \nRegister your attendance: education@steel-sci.com

SUMMARY:Steel Connection Design course
DESCRIPTION:This course is for designers and technicians wanting practical tuition in steel connection design. The course concentrates on the design of nominally pinned connections\, in accordance with BS EN 1993-1-8\, considering vertical shear and tying. The Eurocode approach to the design of moment resisting connections will be discussed\, anticipating that software will be used for the design of these connections. Bracing connections\, bases\, splices\, welded joints and non-standard connections will all be covered. The Eurocode rules for ordinary and pre-loaded assemblies will be discussed. Critical design checks and rules of thumb will be identified\, for preliminary connection sizing. Delegates should expect to undertake a series of numerical examples.
