Belgrade Engineering Meet-up
Bridge, Structural & Geotechnical Engineering with MIDAS
Meet the engineers shaping Belgrade,
over drinks and good conversation
Three disciplines that share the same projects but rarely share a room. On 13 October, hosted by MIDAS IT Europe, you'll meet the people on the other side of your drawings — bridge, structural and geotechnical engineers from Belgrade's design offices, institutes and contractors.
The evening is built around real project stories from the region, followed by open Q&A and cross-discipline networking over drinks and finger food.
WHO IT'S FOR
Bridge, structural and geotechnical engineers from design offices, institutes and contractors, from early-career engineers to team leads
FORMAT
Casual — drinks, mixed tables, open networking
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Stories behind the structures, from the engineers who delivered them
- Open Q&A after every session
- Mixed tables of four across all three disciplines
One evening, three disciplines,
the people behind the projects

Bridge EngineeringLazar Pavić
Steel Bridge Erection & FEM Specialist
POWERCHINA
Speaker Bio
Civil/Structural Engineer and M.Sc. with 33 years of professional experience, including 17 years focused on construction, erection and engineering of long-span steel bridges.
More about Lazar
Extensive project experience with French, Italian, Spanish, Austrian, Turkish and Chinese organizations, combined with senior responsibility for bridge construction, steel fabrication and erection, design coordination and technical supervision.
Particular strength lies at the interface between structural engineering and construction: translating structural design into safe and efficient erection sequences, assessing construction stages using finite-element analysis, and managing technically demanding steel bridge works. Official licensed user of MIDAS Civil NX for static and dynamic structural analysis, with repeated invitations from MIDAS to deliver technical webinars and lectures on application of the software.

Structural EngineeringStrahinja Jeremić
Golden Summit Engineering d.o.o. Beograd
Speaker Bio
Strahinja Jeremić is a structural engineer with seven years of international experience in the analysis and design of complex steel, reinforced-concrete, façade, bridge, and industrial structures.
More about Strahinja
His project experience spans Europe, the Middle East, and North America, including major developments such as Trojena Ski Village in NEOM, Epic Games HQ in Serbia, the Dubai Exhibition Centre expansion, motorway bridges, façade projects, and industrial mining facilities.
He has extensive experience with Eurocode-based structural design, steel connection design, FEM analysis, technical documentation, multidisciplinary coordination, and client-facing presentations. Strahinja is an advanced user of structural analysis and design platforms including MIDAS Gen and Civil, STAAD.Pro, SAP2000, ETABS, SAFE, RM Bridge, IDEA StatiCa, and related CAD/BIM tools. He holds a Master’s Degree in Structural Engineering from the Faculty of Civil Engineering at the University of Niš.
Session
MIDAS Gen NX – Hands-on Eurocode Design Workflow
Introductory Session Based on a Real Company Project
This session provides an introduction to using MIDAS Gen NX for Eurocode-based structural design, illustrated through a real project from our company. I will present the typical workflow, from model setup and load definition to Eurocode combinations, structural analysis, and design verification, while highlighting the practical decisions and lessons learned during the project. The aim is to give attendees a clear, project-based understanding of how MIDAS Gen NX can be integrated into everyday engineering practice.
Bridge EngineeringIvan Mićović
Endessa Solutions Inc.
Speaker Bio
Ivan is a senior bridge engineer with experience in medium and large projects across multinational settings. He first started using Midas Civil while working at AECOM in Canada over 10 years ago, where he developed a strong foundation in bridge design.
More about Ivan
Now based in Serbia, Ivan leads a bridge design team, driving large capital investment projects that contribute to the country’s infrastructure development.
Session
Bridge Reconstruction: Structural Assessment, Modelling and Design Using MIDAS Civil NX
Geotechnics & TunnellingMiloš Stojanović
Mining and Metallurgy Institute Bor
Speaker Bio
Miloš is a Senior Project Engineer at the Mining and Metallurgy Institute Bor, with experience in underground mine design, geotechnical analysis, and numerical modelling. His work focuses on designing and assessing underground mine excavations and applying numerical methods to complex geotechnical problems.
Session
Numerical Modelling of Underground Mine Excavations: From Drift Stability to Mining Method Design
This session presents the application of MIDAS GTS NX to the numerical analysis and design of underground mine excavations. Starting with the modelling of a development drift, the presentation will demonstrate how numerical analysis can assess excavation response and support requirements. The session will also briefly explore how this modelling approach can extend to mining method design.
