co-located with NASCC: The Steel Conference

April 18-20 • Grapevine, Texas

In conjunction with NASCC: The Steel Conference and the Annual Stability Conference

NASCC: The Steel Conference offers more than 90 technical sessions and is the premier educational event for structural engineers, fabricators, erectors and detailers. In addition to practical seminars on the latest design concepts and construction techniques, The Conference offers an extensive trade show (featuring products ranging from structural software to machinery for cutting steel beams) and plentiful networking opportunities. It’s a once-a-year opportunity to learn the latest techniques, see the most innovative products, and network with your peers and clients. And one low registration fee gains you admittance to technical sessions, keynote address, the T.R. Higgins Lecture and the exhibition hall.

Who Attends?

More than 3500 structural engineers, steel fabricators,

erectors, detailers, educators and others involved in the design

and construction of fabricated steel buildings and bridges

attend the conference each year. In addition to conference

seminars, attendees have many networking opportunities,

including the annual Fabricator Roundtable and a new series

of “Engage” sessions where four or five speakers give very

short presentation and the rest of the session is devoted to

discussions between small groups and the speakers.
