The Philippine Group of IABSE, once again, is one of the supporting organizations of a conference hosted by the Association of Structural Engineers of the Philippines. This time, IABSE-PH is supporting the 6th ASIA Conference on Earthquake Engineering which will be held on Sept. 22-24, 2016 at Cebu City, Philippines. IABSE-PH members, Dr. Andy Oreta and Rannie Ison are the founding members of the ACEE in 2004 and are now members of the organizing committee of the 6ACEE.
The 6th ASIA Conference on
Earthquake Engineering (6ACEE) will be held on on September 22-24, 2016 in
Cebu City on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of Association of Structural
Engineers of the Philippines, Inc. (ASEP) and in commemoration of the 3rd
anniversary of the 2013 Bohol Earthquake. The theme of the 6ACEE is "Bridging
Theory and Practice in Earthquake Engineering for Enhancing Community Earthquake
Resilience."
