MREPC will participate for the first time in the 16th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering (16th WCEE), which will be held in Santiago, Chile from 9 - 13 January 2017. The conference, which is organised by the International Association of Earthquake Engineering, is expected to receive over 4,000 delegates. Since its inception in 1956, the conference has been held every four years in different countries. WCEE offers a stimulating environment to exchange knowledge, ideas, research outcomes and practical experience on seismic engineering. It is expected to draw the participation of a multi-disciplinary global community of scientists, engineers, architects, planners and policymakers, with the common interest in promoting earthquake risk reduction. MREPC together with a Malaysian manufacturer will exhibit and promote quality engineering rubber products such as high-damping natural rubber bearings, bridge bearings, expansion joints and dock fenders at the event. Come and visit the MREPC stand at Booth E6 & E7 at CasaPiedra Convention Centre to know more about Malaysian-made high-quality engineering rubber products.
