About IAStructE

The Indian Association of Structural Engineers, identified as IAStructE, was conceptualized and constituted in the year 2002 by a group of senior professional Structural Engineers from all regions of the country. It was registered under the Societies Registration Act on 20th December 2002. Indian Association of Structural Engineers (IAStructE) is national apex body of structural engineers in India established with the objective to cater to the overall professional needs of structural engineers. The Association has become the source of expertise and information concerning all issues that involve structural engineering and public safety within the built environment. It has no commercial objective. IAStructE has signed an MoU with IStructE (Institution of Structural Engineers) of UK, JSSI (Japan Society of Seismic Isolation), SEAONC (Structural Engineers Association of Northern California), ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers, UK) and Structural Engineers Association of Nepal (SEANeP)for exchange of information and promotion of Structural Engineering profession

IAStructE is purely a professional learned society with the prime objective of supporting and protecting the profession of structural engineering by upholding professional standards and acting as a mouthpiece for structural engineers in India. It endeavors to ensure that it’s members develop the necessary skill in structural engineering and work to the highest standards by maintaining a commitment to professional ethics and standards within structural engineering. It strives for continued technical excellence; advancing safety and innovation across the built environment. It also strives to make available to the Government, Public Sector and Private Sector  -  a  credible  source  of  well  qualified  and  experienced Structural  Engineers. A nationwide database of Structural Engineers has been compiled and is being constantly updated.

The Association provides opportunity for all the members to develop skills in Structural Engineering and helps members to be at the forefront of Structural Engineering practice. Towards achievement of its aims and objectives, IAStructE is engaged in organizing the following:

• Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Courses for Professionals
• Refresher Courses for young & Practicing engineers
• Student’s oriented programs
• Seminars/Workshops/Conferences
• Technical Lectures related to the latest technological advancements and Technical Discussions
