fib symposium in Tel Aviv
The next fib symposium, taking place in April 2013 in Tel Aviv, Israel, will be a great opportunity to gain state-of-the-art knowledge on recent developments, technologies and interesting current projects, share and discuss information and ideas with experts, form international networks, as well as renew old acquaintances. The 2013 symposium themes, which cover developments in materials, design and construction of concrete structures, will have interest for almost everyone to be informed of the latest innovations, techniques and ideas, and to have opportunity to discuss and debate.
For more information, see http://www.fib2013tel-aviv.co.il.
Short courses
fib short courses and workshops are held around the world several times per year, bringing together international and local experts to present advanced knowledge on specialized topics. Recent courses have been held in Greece (“Earthquake resistance of precast concrete structures”), South Africa (“Concrete structures in fire”) and Italy (“Recent advances in codes and design guidelines towards a sustainable development” and “The new Model Code for Concrete Structures”). The next course will be a concrete bridge workshop held on 15-16 October 2012 in Ankara, Turkey, in conjunction with ACE2012. For more information, see http://www.fib-international.org/courses and the events calendar.
fib-news – September 2012 issue
The September issue of fib-news reports on the 2012 fib Symposium that took place in Stockholm, Sweden, the awards and honors that were presented there, as well as the recent fib International Ph.D. Symposium in Karlsruhe, Germany, and a sustainability short course and bond in concrete symposium both held in Italy in June.

Structural Concrete – September 2012 issue
The September 2012 issue of the Structural Concrete Journal is now available in electronic form to fib members via the Wiley Online Library: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/suco.v13.3/issuetoc. Papers in this issue include: deterioration and design models for reinforcement corrosion, design of a fibre-reinforced tunnel in accordance with MC2010, improvements to the Eurocode 2 shrinkage model for concrete, and a design model for the fatigue behaviour of normal strength, high strength and ultra high strength concrete.
3rd Ibero-American Congress on self-compacting concrete
The 3rd Ibero-American Congress on self-compacting concrete will take place in Madrid on 3-4 December 2012. This event will bring together technicians, designers, researchers and scientists to promote a better understanding of common interests ranging from the most recent developments in components materials, to construction processes or structural performance. The congress is an opportunity to share advanced results and experiences related to self-compacting concrete since papers from six different countries will be presented.
