This article presents the “International Steel Bridges Competition” (ISBC), which is organised at theWrocławUniversity of Science and Technology (WUST) in Poland under the patronage of the Polish Group of IABSE. The main principle of the competition is to follow, as far as possible, the bridge investment process: from design, through construction, to proof load tests. Five-person teams should perform calculations using advanced Finite Element Method (FEM) software packages, then construct and test projects of 2.5 m long bridge models.

国际钢桥竞赛——对年轻工程师的科学和教学益处

本文介绍了“国际钢桥竞赛”(ISBC)，该竞赛由波兰弗罗茨瓦夫科技大学 (WUST) 组织，由 IABSE 波兰集团赞助。比赛的主要原则是尽可能遵循桥梁投资过程：从设计，到施工，再到荷载试验。五人小组应使用先进的有限元法 (FEM) 软件包进行计算，然后构建和测试 2.5 m 长桥梁模型的项目。
