Overview

Join the ICE West Midlands Shrewsbury Branch for a lunch and learn webinar to eplore how expanded polystyrene (EPS) solutions are transforming civil engineering and infrastructure projects through sustainable, lightweight ground engineering approaches, practical design insight and real world project applications.

Attendees will hear from Simon Roberts, national infrastructure manager at BEWI, who will share the applications of EPS across a variety of civil engineering environments, including:

  • Key design considerations and structural performance requirements
  • Industry standards and compliance requirements
  • How EPS systems are contributing to sustainability goals

This event is designed for engineers, specifiers and construction professionals looking to expand their understanding of innovative ground engineering approaches and modern infrastructure solutions.
