Jean-Pierre Jaspart is professor of steel and composite
constructions at Liège University, in Belgium. He is also involved
in other teaching activities throughout Europe, and in particular
in an Erasmus Mundus project, SUSCOS, together with five other
top-level European universities in the field of steel construction.
He carries out research in the following topics: stability and
resistance of steel and composite structures, connection design in
steel and composite constructions, and robustness of structural
systems. In 1992, he won the Magnel Award. He is a member of the
Technical Committee ?Connections? (TC10) of the ECCS and was
chairman for several years of its sub-committee TWG10.2 ?Joints?.
Together with the second author and the late Martin Steenhuis, he
drafted large parts of the initial version of Eurocode 3 Part 1-8
(the so-called Annex JJ) and is currently a member of Working Group
CEN/TC 250/SC 3/WG 8 for the evolution of Eurocode 3 Part 1-8. He
has authored over 260 publications, including 50 papers in
international journals and 20 contributions to books.
Klaus Weynand worked for ten years at the Institute of Steel
Construction at the Technical University of Aachen, Germany, as a
researcher and teacher. He has been involved in many international
research projects, his research mainly focusing on joints in steel
structures. In 1999, he founded, together with Markus Feldmann in
Aachen, his own design office Feldmann+Weynand, where he is still a
partner and the managing director. Since 1992, Klaus Weynand has
been a member of the Technical Committee ECCS TC 10 and, since
1997, a technical expert in the Technical Commission of CIDECT. He
was involved in drafting the pre-version of Eurocode 3 Part 1-8,
together with Jean-Pierre Jaspart, co-author of this book, and the
late Martin Steenhuis from Delft. He has prepared papers for
various international conferences and journals and has published
books for practitioners (e.g. design tables for standardised
joints). He is currently also a member of the German Mirror Group
for Eurocode 3 and a member of the Working Group CEN/TC 250/SC 3/WG
8 for the evolution of Eurocode 3 Part 1-8.
