Enabling Qualification of Hybrid Structures for Lightweight and Safe Maritime Transport.

Final Event of the Interreg 2Seas project is scheduled for 23 November.

                       

On 23 November, the final event of the Interreg 2Seas project QUALIFY will take place. The QUALIFY consortium has delivered the knowledge that the classification societies need to develop guidelines for the certification of adhesively bonded composite-to-steel joints for primary structures.

Please join us via livestreaming on Vimeo to discover the project and its results and to interact with the QUALIFY partners.
