    Next-Gen Smart Bridge Engineering:
    From Concept to Construction using MIDAS CIVIL NX
        🕙 09:30 AM - 02:00 PM
    📍 Hotel Novotel, Ahmedabad, Gujarat-380015
    📝Overview
    India’s Roads & Railway infrastructure expansion has significantly increased the complexity and performance requirements of structural bridge design and construction. Bridge engineering is evolving rapidly — tighter project timelines, cost optimization pressures, complex geometries, and increasing proof-checking requirements demand smarter, automated and faster design workflows.
     
    The Bridge Engineering Seminar in Ahmedabad brings together leading industry experts and practicing engineers for a high-value technical exchange focused on real-world bridge design and next-generation automation.
     
    The seminar will feature three distinguished bridge engineering professionals presenting live case studies from executed projects covering Reinforced Concrete (RC) Bridges, Prestressed Concrete (PSC) Bridges and Rail–Structure Interaction (RSI) in railway steel and composite bridges. These sessions will provide practical insights into design challenges, analytical approaches, construction stage considerations, Indian code compliance requirements, and lessons learned from actual project environments.
     
    Following the expert presentations, the MIDAS technical team will conduct a special session focussed on future of Bridge Engineering through smart and efficient automation tools for bridge modelling, design and drawings and reports generation; all under MIDAS Bridge solutions portfolio.
     
    Through live demonstrations using MIDAS CIVIL NX, participants will experience how automation and integrated workflows are transforming bridge engineering — improving accuracy, reducing design time, and enabling smarter decision-making. This seminar is designed for consultants, contractors, proof-checking authorities, and railway/road infrastructure professionals seeking to stay ahead in an increasingly demanding and technology-driven bridge design ecosystem.
