This is a sponsored media announcement. Interested persons should communicate directly with the undersigned.
Dear Colleagues:
You might be already aware of a short course announced earlier on Oct 4th via Email. I am appending herewith a reminder /followup announcement of the same short course on 'Seismic Design Of Reinforced Concrete Buildings' being organized by IIT-Gandhinagar in Ahmedabad. Interested persons may Register online at the course website -
