11^th International Conference on Short and Medium Span Bridges (SMSB 2022)

Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 19-22, 2022

Scope & Topics

The 11th International Conference on Short and Medium Span Bridges, SMSB – XI, will take place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 19-22, 2022. The SMSB Conference has been organized under the auspices of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, CSCE, and is held every four years in one of the Canadian Cities. It has traditionally provided a worldwide state-of-the-art forum on all aspects of short and medium span bridges. The earlier conferences, with the latest held in Quebec City (2018), and Calgary (2014), had significant international representation. The conference includes forensic engineering, planning, design, construction and management of short and medium span bridges. The SMSB series of conferences is a premier forum to share knowledge and provide guidance for future developments. The conference is sponsored by many engineering organizations.
