As soon as they login, the fib members can access their profile and manage their account easily direclty from the fib network.
Membership
fib members receive a variety of benefits that keeps them up-to-date on the latest technical developments related to structural concrete. All fib members receive a subscription to the quarterly Structural Concrete Journal, discounts on symposium registration fees, the fib Directory, and access to the members-only section of the fib website. In addition, depending on their membership category, they receive fib’s technical bulletins (approximately four to five bulletins per year) and/or substantial discounts on their purchase.
Task Groups and Working Parties
One of the fib’s main activities is the publication of technical bulletins: state-of-the-art reports, recommendations, guides and model codes. Ten fib Commissions and several Special Activity Groups (SAG), including several Task Groups, develop and draft these bulletins, which form the cornerstone of fib’s work and are a major contribution to the international knowledge base on structural concrete. Members come from both research and industry, ensuring a balance between theoretical knowledge and relevant practical experience. New members are always welcome.
Commission members should be members of the fib; members of task groups are encouraged but not required to become fib members.
For the list of current commissions, task groups and their working programmes, visit the commissions page.
A central aspect within the mission of the fib is the release of model codes on concrete structures and related subjects. These codes should serve worldwide as the guiding science-based documents offering in a code-type version the state of the art knowledge on the planning, design, construction, execution, operation or in service performance, maintenance, rehabilitation and dismantlement of new and existing concrete structures, respectively. The model codes should meet the latest requirements and technologies in view of aspects related to safety, serviceability, durability, resilience and sustainability of structures, recognizing economic, aesthetic and other needs of different societies.
fib Model Code (2020) is a comprehensive concrete design code that integrates provisions for both new and existing structures, prioritising sustainability by considering societal needs, life-cycle cost, and environmental impacts.
fib MC (2020) emphasises an integrated life-cycle perspective, addressing aspects like safety, durability, and adaptability while factoring concrete’s significant role in climate change.
Developed by over 1’400 contributors from 67 countries, fib MC (2020) represents the cutting-edge global consensus on concrete structure design, incorporating advancements in science and materials to ensure tested and reliable models.
A series of articles written by experts and related to the fib Model Code for Concrete Structures 2020 is available on Wiley website. Please make sure you are logged in as a fib member to access all the articles.
fib members receive a 50% discount on bulk purchases of more than 30 copies (hardcover or e-book edition) or download a copy of the MC2010 e-book edition.
Structural Concrete, the official journal of the fib, provides conceptual and procedural guidance in the field of concrete construction and features peer-reviewed papers, keynote research and industry news covering all aspects of the design, construction, performance in service, conservation (assessment, maintenance, strengthening) and demolition of concrete structures, research about the behaviour of concrete structures, development of design methods, fib Model Code, sustainability of concrete structures.
fib Members can the SC Journal issues on the fib website and download them from the fib bookstore, or download them from the Wiley Online Library. PDF articles are published since 2011.
Indexed in the Thomson Reuters (ISI) Web of Science since Volume 10 (2009), the journal now has an impact factor of 3.3 and is published six times a year. All members of the fib automatically get the latest issue of Structural Concrete, so the best way to stay informed (as well as the more convenient way to obtain the journal and other advantages) is to become a member of the fib. In order to access to the SC Journal electronically, fib members need to be logged in and follow the steps as per the FAQ.

Fellows
The fib considers that it is important to recognise fib members that have been active for many years and that have contributed to the goals of the fib.
The fib fellows are elected on the basis of the following criteria:
They are current fib members and have been for the last 10 years
They have embraced the values of the federation,
They have provided continuous outstanding contributions to the development of concrete and concrete structures or to the development of the fib through the participation in Task Groups and Commissions or other means.
The contributions for concrete structures can be in the areas of education, research, design and construction.
The fib fellows will have the following benefits:
Being recognised at the fib Symposium or Congress of the year of selection
Being listed on the fib website
Being invited to incorporate the fib Fellow to his/her signature. The signature designation which will help branding and recognition for a fellow is:
"Name Lastname Ffib", to designate a person bestowed with the fib fellow.
Since the fib does not have, at the time of creation of the program, any fellows the Presidium has decided to designate all past fib Honorary members, fib medalists, Freyssinet medalists and fib Honorary Presidents as fellows of the fib.

Young Member Group Award
Scope
The contest looks at new sustainable, low-cost, time-efficient solutions accounting for lifetime management for:
Recycling from waste to rebuild;
Assessing damaged structures and infrastructure;
Reusing and repairing damaged structures and infrastructure;
Shelters, blast-resistant, and special defensive structures;
Preventive and innovative structural solutions for natural disasters.
Solutions combining different materials are eligible but reinforced concrete structures and infrastructure must play a key role for the proposed solutions.
Goals
The world has witnessed natural disasters and wars that have affected millions of people by leaving behind a trail of destruction and despair. In the aftermath of a disaster, the most urgent needs are to provide shelter, food, water, sanitation, health care, and security to the affected population. However, these needs are often difficult to meet due to the lack of resources and infrastructure.
Therefore, there is a need for innovative solutions that can address the challenges of disaster response and recovery in a time-efficient and low-cost manner. Furthermore, preventing solutions to reduce the impact of future disasters are also important to increase society resilience. These solutions should be able to adapt to different contexts and scenarios, and leverage local capacities and resources.
The aim of this competition is to encourage and reward the development of such solutions by inviting individuals and teams from around the world to present their ideas for the recovery of disaster-broken zones.
