Expert Reviewers

A team of expert reviewers have been reviewing the design and detailing processes implemented into each and every Osdag module. The review process relies heavily on the expertise of our review panel both in the theoretical and practical aspects of steel design, detailing and construction best practices. This entirely voluntary expert review process for Osdag’s algorithms involves going through minute details of our design and detailing checks and interpreting reference documents from India, UK and US. Osdag would have been much poorer without this entirely voluntary help from our expert reviewers.

The Osdag team also thanks individual steel designers, consultants, fabricators, manufacturers, academics, and students whose inputs have been a great support for Osdag development.
