SEC 2014 - Structural Engineering Convention 2014

SEC2014 will be held for its ninth time since its beginning in 1997 with the pioneering efforts made by CSIR-Structural Engineering Research Centre (CSIR-SERC), Chennai and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras. It is a biennial event which attracts structural engineers from India and abroad from both academia and industry. The convention, as much as it did in its history, will contribute to scientific developments in the field of structural engineering in a global sense. Over the years, SEC has evolved to be truly international with successive efforts from other premier institutes and organizations towards the development of this convention. We, at IIT Delhi, wholeheartedly invite you to participate and contribute to SEC2014.
