International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures (IASS)

The International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures (IASS) is a professional not-for-profit organization of engineers, architects, designers, builders and academics sharing a common interest in design, analysis, materials, and construction/fabrication techniques of shell and spatial structures. The IASS has as its goal the achievement of progress through an interchange of ideas among all those interested in lightweight structural systems, such as lattice, tension, membrane, shell and space structures, and in the creative integration of structural engineering and architectural design. The association, founded by Eduardo Torroja in 1959, has published a periodical bulletin or journal every year since its founding, currently the Journal of the International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures (J. IASS).
