Exhibition & Contest
Before and during the symposium an exposition will be on display which will include the best entries of an international design contest. This exposition will feature objects from the domain of shell and spatial structures. The contest is open for everybody.More information can be found on the website www.iass2015.org/expo.
Social programme
A social programme will be organised for the participants and accompanying persons. This programme will include a welcome reception, a reception during the opening of SAIL, a gala dinner on Thursday and other events. Also a special programme will be organised for the accompanying persons. A special event will be organised for the young engineers and engineers young at heart.
Sail Amsterdam
On the last two days of the 2015 IASS symposium the 5-yearly SAIL Amsterdam event will start. Sail Amsterdam is the biggest event in the Netherlands. From our conference location we will have an excellent view on the waterfront and the “Sail-in” with about 30 tall sailing ships and hundreds of smaller vessels. It is possible to visit the tall ships. More information on SAIL Amsterdam can be found on www.sail.nl
The historic city of Amsterdam, museums, Sail Amsterdam and other interesting things to be seen in the rest of the Netherlands might be an excellent reason to stay some more days after the symposium.
