Experts in the cold-formed steel (CFS) industry have an opportunity to share their knowledge at the upcoming International Specialty Conference on Cold-formed Steel Structures<\/a>, thanks to a recent call for abstracts. The event, arranged by Wei-Wen Yu Center for Cold-formed Steel Structures<\/a> (CCFSS) at Missouri University of Science and Technology<\/a>, is set to come to St. Louis\u2019 Union Station Hotel<\/a> November 7 to 8, 2018.<\/p>\n

Event coordinators state submitted abstracts may focus on a variety of subjects, including research, structural design, new products and design criteria, engineering education, and construction methods. They should be suitable for the conference\u2019s typical audience of researchers, engineers, manufacturers, and educators.<\/p>\n

Students completing MS or PhD degrees may submit papers under a special category\u2014the Wei-Wen Yu Outstanding Paper Award, which is open only to student-authored papers based on the student\u2019s research or thesis.
